You are just a thoughtful person. You wouldn't want #1 orchid to be all alone in the shipping box. Carol

Default You might be an orchid enthusiast

When you contemplate seriously finding new homes for your (almost) entire hoya collection, one of your epi. strictums, all your hybrid epis., your duplicate rhipsalis plants, the enormous decorative tree and scheffleras (sp?) so you will have room in the GH for all the orchids you managed to buy this summer. And, on top if this, are contemplating how to convince DH to build an entirely new, larger GH, this time to my specs.

when you lose an orchid, you have a long procession, dressed in black with the death march playing in the background and I'm just going to the trash can.

when your Hubby assumes everything you say is about orchids... therefore when you ask him to if he can move the Cat (meaning a wooden ornimental one) back to it's normal position, he is trying to work out which of the plants is the Catt.

Just happened to me

No matter how many time you move your orchids around, you exactly know where each plant is.

Then instead of counting 'sheep' when you cannot sleep, you start naming each plant.
