Talking Did you guys know Midsomer Murders has an episode about orchids?

A friend of ours told us about this, we watched and felt like making a video about it, because it's errr... a lot.

It goes from well researched, they made up an wild orchid, and the location makes sense, so does the look of the orchid. To very basic mistakes, a paph that somehow turns into a phal. Oh and the prices of orchids

If you are in the right mood and don't mind orchid collectors being portrait as crazy people capable of murder it's a fun watch.

Here's our video (we warn about spoilers before spoiling anything):

interesting! I love how the orchid show is a full blown royal wedding theme with mostly Trader Joe Orchids in display.

Will have to check it out thanks.
Sounds right to me though.
You have to be a little crazy to have a big collection of orchids or you end up with a lot of cats.
Sometimes both.
And if you aren't crazy yet then trying to build up a big collection and finding out how to grow them all successfully will drive you crazy.
Didn't you know orchid growers like to talk to their plants? Crazy.

As a seasoned gardener, that can be a very subjective subject. Ahem... you should have seen me when I realized all six of my Japanese maples died over winter from verticillium wilt... it was quite ugly.

Oh yes! The amount of Trader Joe orchids on that episode is something else.

The idea of someone having a lot of cats and a lot of orchids at the same time. How do you the orchids safe?

I learned about the episode and series years ago at our orchid society and that episode got me hooked on the series. I have seen all but the last few seasons of Midsommer Murders--they are not on any of the streaming services to which spouse has subscribed. It is a great series!
