A few days ago, my mom gave me an orchid. It hasn't bloomed yet, so I don't know what color it is. I'm so excited! I bet it will be white or pink.
It's the first plant in my new apartment.

Its beautiful Claudine and am so pleased to hear that you've finally got one - especially as I know you had been longing to get a few orchids for your new home.

In the meantime looking forward to seeing the blooms :)

Your orchid looks really nice and I hope it blooms wonderful for you. I remember you saying that you had lots of mini roses, did you not take them with you when you moved into your own place?

Zigs - unfortunately, I've never seen a wild orchid here:(
Gata Montes - thank you:) I love my new orchid and I plan to get at least one more, but first I want to find out what color it is:)
Rosyrain, R.R. - my miniature roses are in the attic at my parents' house. They're dormant, so I can't bring them here yet, my new apartment is too warm. I miss them very much!
Jewell - thank you:) I'm looking forward to seeing the flowers, I'm sure they'll be lovely:D

Trellum - it's very exciting!:D I wish I had more money though. Today, I bought a rug and now I can't afford buying new plants:cry: But I hope my friends will bring me some:D
Elenamarie - thank you:) The orchid makes my livingroom look really pretty. Plants are lovely home decorations!:D

How beautiful, Claudine and I can't wait to to see what color it is when it blooms. I have a friend who grows orchids but I have never tried. They sure are lovely though:)

They really are!:) In my opinion orchids look like small pieces of art. I'm in love with them.
In the future, I want to have two orchids and at least 20 miniature roses in my apartment:love:
