When at first you don't succeed, blog, blog again.

This is a beloved Laeliocattleya orchid of mine named 'Gold Rush' which bloomed earlier than usual this year.  I almost missed it in the midst of all the holiday madness, glad I didn't!

My love has to work today so it's just me and the beasts...

Happy New Year!
