  4. Thanks, Dawn. I never though about it, but you're right. They do look like that.

    Thanks, Bag Lady.

    Ron, I don't recall, but they're nowhere near the size they appear in the pic.

  12. They have rabbit ears!
    That was just what I needed to see as my surroundings get browner and browner and drier and drier--some tropical purple.

  14. I love purple, too. All flowers are gorgeous but orchids have such mystique. They're peaceful looking. That is really a great photo.

  15. Beautiful colours in this one, Leah. Love it. Apologies for my lateness in commenting and my lack of photo. We have visitors at the moment so time is something I don't have. :-)
