A PINK Valentine Post

Today I am hooking up with Tootsietime for Fertilizer Friday and How Sweet the Sound for Pink Saturday. Be sure to go by and check out each one of their blogs!



I have several plants of Cymbidium Orchids that I inherited from my father. He use to love and nurture his plants. Before he past away, he gave me some plants and they have multiplied into some big beautiful plants. I keep them in my patio and during February and March they start to get huge buds on them. Here is one small plant that has already bloomed and I brought inside the house to admire it whenever I walk by!

Whenever I see one of these flowers it makes me think of my Dad and how much I miss him.


I love vintage planters. Here are some of my vintage Valentine Planters from the 40s and 50s. I love to display them during the Valentine Holiday.

Have a Happy Valentine Day. Here is a Valentine for YOU!

Blooming Tuesday

I love spring time in my garden. There are two plants that only bloom for me in the spring and I look forward to them every year. They are my Orchids and my Pink Amaryllis.

I have a pink Amaryllis plant that is blooming right now that has 12 flowers on it. I planted one bulb 3 years ago, it was a gift to me for my birthday from a friend.

They have the prettiest blooms on them. I planted this one under one of my rose bushes. My Rottweiler dog Buck smashed my last one, so I planted this one somewhere he won't lay!

My Cymbidium Orchids are also blooming. I keep them in pots in my patio outside my bedroom. They will last for weeks cut in a vase as long as you change the water frequently.
