I found this weed in my garden.

And it is ...................? :confused:

A beautiful white orchid.

My first bloom in a couple of months.

Wish I had a few of them growing in my garden.

Here in the tropics, you just put the pots where they'll survive, and in their own good time they flower. I won't put up a shadecloth tent and coddle them like some do, they just travel at their own pace (like me).

Beautiful. And, my kind of gardening ... stick 'em in the ground and let them do the work. :)

sold here as dendrobiums I think.

My mom is able to grow them but I have had no luck here. Congratulations! She's a beauty!

Thanks Lil.

We think it's a dendrobium also.

Very nice, OF. I take a very Darwinian approach (as do you, no?:D) to gardening. I only water the plants I planted myself; everything else, it's got to survive by its own planty wits.

I believe in the Assisted Darwinian approach.

Some things I don't want, but are too close to things I do want, get hit with boiling water from the kettle.

No poison spray on the good stuff, and cheaper than glyphosphate.

More weeds in my garden.

AZRedHot 08-30-2011 10:38 PM

Very pretty!

Oldfart 08-30-2011 10:42 PM

It was hiding in a corner.

I only stumbled on it by chance.

AZRedHot 08-30-2011 10:46 PM

I'm not entirely sure I entirely believe that. :)
