          More like tears streaming down my face as I stare off into the sunset while Circle of Life is playing on repeat in the background. Hopefully that makes sense.

      Is that the kind of orchid in this picture? I took so many pictures, I can’t remember them all.

    It’s crazy what these kinds of places can grow! We can’t even keep an orchid alive for more than a few months… beautiful.

      Totally, they had so many amazing orchids! And this is in a high dessert. As far as I know, orchids like moisture.

        Even more impressive! They’re finicky plants, my mother in law was able to keep tons of them but that was in a tropical environment. Still amazes me though.

          I know, it’s incredible how people can do this. I’ll be over here happy my ZZ plant is still alive.

      Agreed. Easily the coolest flower, although maybe someone will prove me wrong.
