    Default Wishing you all a healthy and happy holiday season

    Just taking a quick time out from packing, to wish you all a very Happy and Healthy Holiday Season and New Year.

    Tomorrow morning I'll be on my way to spend the holidays with my family in New Jersey. I haven't seen them in 2 1/2 years, so that will be the best gift of all.

    BTW, that Paph is still torturing me. It's still trying to open, but I just know it will wait until I go tomorrow, and then it's going to show off (only there won't be anyone here to see it). Anyone know how long Paph blooms last?

    Same to you. I'm packing for California to meet up with my family for the holidays too. My wardii still hasn't opened completely either . It had better be open when I get back. Paph. flowers can last weeks to months depending on conditions and species/background.

    Same to you and the rest.Is it just coincidence but my Paph exul is just breaking out of the sheath and I'll be going to spend the holidays with my second son's family. Am really looking forward to seeing the grand-daughters. Last saw them in August but already missing them terribly.

    Thank you and Happy Holidays to all. I'll be cutting some of my Cattleya flowers to make corsages for mother and a few others. They loved them last year.
