This is me..


When you have a hiding spot for new orchids and you can't wait for your spouse/partner to go to work so you can finally repot and and give it a home before he comes home for lunch.

When your boyfriend/spouse asks "is that a new orchid?" And your response is "no, I just moved some around."

... if, when you go to family or in-law events out of town, you irritate your family by spending so much time going to nurseries and Lowe's looking for plants.

... if you're cooking lunch for yourself, you remember you need to feed your Vandas, and you burn your own lunch.

At least the orchids got fed.

When you purchase carpet runners to protect your carpet in front of your orchid display because you have to check them SEVERAL times a day!

When others show you a picture of a flower and you correctly identify the genus of orchid they are showing you (causing them to stare at you with blank faces)...you might be an orchid nut

When you hear the word cork, you think of bark instead of wine...you might be an orchid nut

Is that a new orchid? No, I've had that a while.
Is that a new orchid? Oh some lady at work heard I was good with them, and she gave it to me because she could not take care of it.
Is that a new orchid? Imagine this! I found it in the garbage! Obviously I just couldn't allow a perfectly good plant to be thrown away!

But then you risk the eyebrow up, Spock style, "I see you have been dumpster-diving again, my dear!"

If your dreams consist of finding a hot growing, orange and brown terrestrial masdevallia in a soccer field, naming it Masdevallia Restrepia, collecting the seed and growing some in your house.

Noooo. Cats are still more important. They feel, have emotions, etc. orchids are nice...but they are plants after all. Don’t be one of those people who dump a 14 year old cat. What if someone dumped you after caring for you for 14 years!

I had a dream few days ago where a mounted bulbo that didnt exist bloomed for me. It had a tag that said "Bulbo. Enchinobium". The flowers clustered on an 8 cm stalk and bloomed all at once. They resembled tiny Bulbo. Lepidum flowers except they're light brown with red stripes. No fragrance. Plant was mounted on a wooden slab, covered with sphagnum moss, bulbs similar to species like Bulbo. Lobbii, pseudobulbs 4 cm height, leaves 20 cm height. Tightly spaced pseudobulbs.

Wait... how am I remembering all this?
