    Yeah, I love walking around and having trees and orchids in every room. This is an incredible number of plants though. How do you keep up with them all and how much time do you end up spending a week caring for them?

    Wow, nice setup there.

    I could have an orchid house if I could kick husband and boys out of it...

    Yep that's it! Thanks for the close up & name. Such cool leaves. I like their shape and how they hang down, like a vine. With a cute lil fuzzy flower. Looks great on the mount with the moss.

    Amazing pictures Andrea !!! I wish I could do the same (Oh wait, I think I am on my way I now understand your great love for miniature plants. You can have so much diversity in just a single room. Hats off to you!
