That's a shame. I just got my first orchid as a gift in September. Started reading up on them, got hooked, went to a show the next month and bought three more. Two of them just started budding last week: unexpected at this time of year, but I'm not complaining!

It was actually kind of cool because we had them for so long, they had become somewhat of a joke. Then, all of a sudden they bloomed. It made it all the more special given the amount of time it took. For some reason, we haven't had orchids in the house for quite some time now. I used to get one for my wife about 6 times a year. I ought to begin that tradition again, they're really beautiful and they can bloom for months. Cut flowers are usually such a waste.
