Welcome to Brad's online memory archives.

Ground Orchids

I still didn’t feel well yesterday, so I hurried home after school. Because of that, and because it stays light out so late, I went out into the garden.

I was most excited to see my bletilla striata, my ground orchids. They are so easy to grow, and each spring I get a mass of purplish-pink color. I got down on the ground for a picture so I could put the blooming rose bush in the background.

So pretty

So pretty

It has been uncomfortably humid and hot the last couple of days. Today it’s supposed to be cooler. Maybe if I get home early today I could sit outside for a while. Or maybe not. My couch is so comfortable.

    That photo angle is cool. More ‘from the ground’ shots! And put a toy dinosaur close to the camera so it looks like he’s about to rampage!

    I sincerely hope you kick this cold soon. What a miserable way to go through the week. 🙁

    What is that green blob in the background on the right side?

      Hehe….it looks like a tree monster…..a happy tree monster. I see its eyes & arms. Reminds me a little of the rock people in Noah.

      Flowers are beautiful too.
