Mother-in-law's orchid

It's been almost 2 years since mother-in-law died. She loved her plants and flowers and we still have a whole collection of her plants in the house in Holland (which used to be her house before she moved to residential care). I bought her this little orchid plant three years ago to put in one of the small novelty plant pots she liked too, one in the shape of a garden gnome with a wheelbarrow. We did take it back home when we cleared her room at the care home and it hasn't bloomed since, but you never know with orchids! Here we are two years later and there are two flowers. It's really a very small flower, not much wider than my thumb. Love the colours !

We're back home in Belgium now and surprise, the weather forecasts are a bit wrong, it's actually dry here with some sun !
