Dendrobium Sonia Orchid |
I think these are called Dendrobium Sonia . Please don't take my word for it. I am relying on Google Images to identify this!
At first, one petal stuck out. Just so you know, it takes ages for orchid flowers to bloom and once it does, it stays for awhile too.

The first to open up and what I saw last before I went away for a week-long holiday.

This greeted me when I returned home.

You know what else is great about orchids? They're tough! I can go on week-long holidays without worrying about them. It doesn't require daily watering.
Have you seen my other orchids? I think I have a thing for purple flowers. You may see it in my previous post - here .
Love the beautiful flowers. I love orchids. My friends gave me some baby orchid plants and I hope they will grow well and bloom like yours.
