Orchid Competition

Will issued his orchids a challenge: which ever one blooms first, gets the prime spot in the middle of the kitchen table. 

Well, the orchids heard and took up the challenge, gangbusters. 


We had our choice of orchids: blooming, budding, crazy roots systems.  We seem to have our white orchids leading, as they each have several blossoms.  Our tiger orchid isn't to be out done, however.  It has two spikes with 14 buds on each spike-- they are just slower to open.  

It is an enjoyable competition to watch, that is for sure: Every day something changes as a flower opens up on one orchid plant or a new leaf on another.
