I just wanted to check in today and write that my new mini office orchid makes me happy. If I were participating in #100HappyDays that's trending right now, I suppose this would be my first submission. I picked it out on Sunday from my local Stop&Shop and it has been the MVP of the past two work days.
Its pressence calms me down. It gives me the perfectly timed few-second breaks in between all the eye-straining computer design. I'm usually shifting its position throughout the day. It starts off in the early morning hugging my iMac screen, then sits sweetly on the window sill once the sun comes out. Midday, I turn it. I doesn't bother me. It waits patiently for my attention.
Its a Just Add Ice orchid and should be easy to keep alive. Place a single ice cube in the pot once a week. No direct sunlight. (I hope I don't mess it up.) We shall see. ♥
Any other tips for this new mini-orchid mama?
