@hkyfvr @lovestogarden @pelly @KOutdoors thank you ladies 😁 it’s been almost 4 years and I’d about given up hope they’d ever flower. The white one only has one single bud but this one has 20+ flower spikes 🥳 checking them hourly to see if they’ve opened 🤣

Always welcome. Very exciting 💕

@KOutdoors it’s only for the fact they’re such low maintenance that they’ve lasted so long 🤣 and my sheer desperation to see their flowers might have added to that 😜

They’re on the way 🤩 #bletilla #hardy-orchid #bletilla-striata-blue-dragon
So pretty. Love the colour. 😍😍
I've got to move mine! They didn't bloom. Thankfully, I can enjoy yours! 💜
It's absolutely stunning 💜🤍💜
@hkyfvr @pelly thanks ladies 😁 very slow to open but have lots more to come on this one 😍
@maldavis it’s the first flower in the almost 4 years I’ve had this! Are they as difficult for you??
@KOutdoors thanks Karen 😄 oh I’d not heard that 😧 will have to investigate 🧐 I do know these have become quite expensive for some reason
Very welcome Kerry. 😊
@kez001uk yes, but I had the rabbits eating mine...problem solved, the a late freeze...and now touch shade. LOL!
@maldavis they’ve had everything thrown at them then 😂
