Everlasting

A very dreich day and hopeless for outdoor photography so today's blip is of an orchid in our kitchen.

Once orchids were a rarity. To-day they are readily available from every supermarket and garden centre and no wonder because they last forever.

"I thought love was a rare orchid that bloomed only once- but once it bloomed, it bloomed forever."- The Poison Diaries, Alnwick Castle Library.
