Orchid

 Years ago, orchids were considered very exotic, expensive and hard to grow, but in the last few years Phalaenopsis orchids have become readily available in the plant section at the grocery store.

 They are a bit tricky to keep going over the long term , but they will  bloom for weeks after you buy them with not too much trouble. That's a real treat at this time of year.

 I water with rainwater as they don't like hard water from a well.

Lovely markings and shapes.
