Default Andy's Orchids. . I am so laughing!

Andy's getting hilariously creative with his orchid descriptions:

Pleurothallis palliolata

"an elegant plant, really cool big 3/4" flowers and a mass flush bloomer, densely clumping foliage up to 6" tall with rich green auriculate 3" leaves, buds develop and appear suddenly outta nowhere, swelling into large alien mother-in-law heads, which burst open revealing their inflamed tongues, doesn't shut up for several weeks, hooded dorsal and fused lateral sepals are a crystalline pale creamy green, with reddish veins, the large swollen nasty tongue-like lip is purple surrounded by a pair of small groping petals."

I LOVE it!

I have both the mother-in-law and the orchid.

And they say orchids are challenging to live with. . .I don't think so.
