Default Fragrant blooms

2 of my catts bloomed for the first time this week with wonderful fragrances!!! I walk into the shade house, avoid the spiders & get lost in the smell of heaven

Default temps

We have temp at 74 at night (hot flashes), but up to 77 during the day.
My daughter has her temps lower & brings in budding orchids & they bloom...
Hmmm...

Nice colours Val.
I'd bring them inside regardless, that way I'd probably enjoy them more.

We could learn a lot from crayons: some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, some have weird names, and all are different colors....but they all exist very nicely in the same box. ...Hmmm? .
