Good morning fr #Pasadena. Lazy morning. Went back to bed after dogs’ breakfast at 4 & mostly slept till 9. Such a treat!! But it’s getting late & despite the sky being conveniently overcast Andy, our tortoise, will want his breakfast very soon so I must get cracking.
🌤️ eventually & 30°c (86°F) so considerably cooler if they’re right. Bravo for ☁️ 😁 Pic: #EpidendrumRadicans aka #GroundOrchid slowly coming back to life after some neglect. Yes, this gardener has plant skeletons 🩻 in his closet 😆

The #flowers of a Chinese ground #orchid, 鹤顶兰, grows on the ground, unlike many orchids, and is native to Southeast Asia, including China. It was imported to England by explorers and eventually became naturalized in many regions, including #Florida.
