wait.
is that really an orchid?!
Yes.
That is so cool! Orchids are so gorgeous.
Have a great weekend, cousin!
An orchid? What a perfect mother's day gift! Love your photos. You're so creative.
Mary
dfBag Lady, it is a cool orchid. They are beautiful, but kind of freaky looking.
Have a great weekend, too.
Mary, thanks so much. I'm glad you like my pics. I love taking them.
How cool! It almost looks like there is a face at the end of it. I was reading an article about orchids recently that said one species in Indonesia grows to over 2 kilograms and a Giant Orchid weighing over two tons was exhibited in London in the 1800's. Now THAT's a corsage!
I'm only learning now about the different types of orchids, and this one is very unique. Thanks, Leah, for sharing the photo.
Orchids come in so many shapes and colors, they are amazing.
Thanks for sharing.
That's a unique shot. Gorgeous and a half.
Hopefully, I'll be back next week with a pic. Busy, busy.
Oh, wow! That is the most unique and fascinating orchid I've ever seen.
And I love your new header. :-D
Fifth, I saw the faces, too. Those are some big orchids. Yikes.
My pleasure, Barbara and Messymimi.
Thanks, David. I'm looking forward to more of your pics.
It really is something, Thomma Lyn. Glad you like the new header.
Very cool. I've never seen anything like it before so thank you for sharing it.
Hilary, thanks. I love taking orchid pics. They are such an interesting flower.
