Now I am suffering...Andrea, this post is fantastic! Now I am suffering from 'love at first sight' at your orchids. I want more orchids. I won't be bored even if I look at them everyday. Today's batch is so beautiful and gorgeous. I have been growing cattleya too, but it blooms erratically, like an eccentric. I learnt from James that I must make sure my orchids have strong roots, so I am concentrating on that too.<br /><br />Regarding Blotanical, I think James is correct. You may be having problems with your computer software or something like that. Blotanical would love to have more members. What Tina said is true about participation at Blotanical. Blotanical will get you many visitors and their comments inspire you to do better. I enjoy my garden visits even more after I joined Blotanical. After all, we share the same interest and garden bloggers are indeed very professional and nice people. <br /><br />I think you mean that if many people visit you and commented, it may be difficult to return back the favour by visiting them back and commenting on their blogs. That is my current headache. I really feel very bad not being able to visit every commenter immediately or regularly as often as I like to and this is tormenting. It is certainly very difficult to balance my love for garden blogging, my family, and work/business matters. We just hope that others understand and friendship is maintained.<br /><br />Andrea, I am very very glad that that you are making happy progress lately. I really hope you can join us at Blotanical and have fun here :))Autumn Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00818422090556602092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5003023115854661475.post-32434551328749159482010-01-20T11:31:22.121+08:002010-01-20T11:31:22.121+08:00Oh my God!

I am sure all of us are here to share them!<br /><br />Noelle, you will not kill them. They are one of those plants which are very difficult to kill, as they are just getting food from the air around them, not from the soil. thank you both.Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06044386271018560595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5003023115854661475.post-42372288156135929492010-01-20T02:42:15.714+08:002010-01-20T02:42:15.714+08:00Oh my goodness, Andrea.

Now that you enticed me again i tried, but very hardly trying with no results. I wonder why it doesn't accept my joining. When i submit the answers to the 3 blanks, the page suddenly said "cannot be displayed". I wonder what that means. I will ask Autumn Belle about it or maybe Jacqui, who are both members too. I agree with you that i feel more people should see at least my photos, even if they dont read the words, lol. thank you.Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06044386271018560595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5003023115854661475.post-44062355338026445832010-01-19T09:30:43.066+08:002010-01-19T09:30:43.066+08:00Hi Andrea, What a lovely blog you have with such d...Hi Andrea, What a lovely blog you have with such diversity of plants and butterflies. The butterflies are simply stunning. I've never seen such beauties before. I do like these yellow orchids. I didn't even know they came in yellow. I bet they smell really really good. <br /><br />Amdrea, if you join Blotanical you do not have to do anything I believe? No favors required. Your feed would go out to tons of other garden bloggers and that would be a benefit? I think some bloggers never even visit Blotanical but have their blog listed there and that is fine. Just thought I'd tell you so others can find your beautiful blog. Your photos are stunning. I especially like the amarylis and the purple spotted butterfly on the purple flower. I wish I could capture something like that. You take care. I am so happy to 'meet' a blogger in the Phillipines.tinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17415302577518111227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5003023115854661475.post-49302714141702720962010-01-19T07:48:27.460+08:002010-01-19T07:48:27.460+08:00Hello Andrea!

Is it very huge? <br /><br />I like your systematic way of introducing orchids. Earlier the vandas and now the cattleya. As you already know, I have problem in identifying them ;-) <br /><br />Btw, the garden very worth visiting is The Secret Garden at 1 Utama Shopping Centre in Petaling Jaya where Dr Ng works. Please note that it only opens during weekends.<br /><br />Oh, I hope you got back to office in time :-DStephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05867061279916535777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5003023115854661475.post-19570190633495787282010-01-18T22:26:02.921+08:002010-01-18T22:26:02.921+08:00Very beautiful!
