The One That Started It All

Why did you start collecting orchids?  For me, it all began with a gift from my boyfriend.  It was a yellow orchid, and as it grew, it was simply the most gorgeous orchid I had ever seen.  I just had to keep collecting more of them!

Interested in seeing how awesome my first orchid is?  Here are some pics from when I first got it, until full bloom.

In total -16 blooms!

Ta da!
