A small inexpensive gift which always delights is ………………….Title : The Gift Of Flowers
I’m told these are Cooktown Orchids. On 19 November 1959 the Cooktown Orchid, under the botanical name of Dendrobium bigibbum var phalaenopsis, was proclaimed as the floral emblem of Queensland, Australia.
To me they are similar to the beautiful IRIS.

Gorgeous to see Robert especially as all the flowers here are now dead and shriveled in the cold…
Thanks John……our mild weather has just got “hot”……33C today but is about to cool down a little with a big storm passing through. Lightning, thunder, darkness……tropical summertime!
Right…lay it on thickly my friend…am I envious? not a bit, it just warmed up to 0 C here…if that’s not tropical I don’t know what is 🙂
Climbing into a fridge would be good right now………well maybe not 🙂
