Eight Blooms!

I was in Walmart the other day.  Not my favorite place to shop, but in our small town, sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do.  I practically gasped when I saw a display of incredible orchids.  I don't often buy plants for keeping potted inside.  I don't have the best track record for keeping them alive.

But I couldn't pass this beauty up.  Check her out...

    They are beautiful and don't have that "walmart feel" at all. Great find!

    Two ice cubes once a week is all the watering they need. Just put the ice in the pot and it will melt providing enough water.
