Favourite flowers of all

Women love flowers, don't they? Most go for roses, lilies, sunflowers & gerbera.
Mine is definitely the beautiful Lady- Orchids. I read that there are over 30,000 varieties of orchids. And the most common ones are Cymbidium, Dendrobium, Oncidium and Phalaenopsis.















I tried to grow some, only one plant bloomed last month (as shown here). And the bloom lasted quite a while, almost 3 weeks. I'll like some tips to grow orchids.


And here are some gorgeous "Bella" from a farm in Rawang.









































































I also made a simple bouquet for a friend, Fabiana who loves this yellow "Dancing Lady" in her natural way, without all the plastic wrappers or ribbons. I added some bear grass and gave a finishing knot with bark string.
