h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I knew this entry would come in handy one day. My son gave me a pot with two gorgeous moth orchids for mother's day (last Sunday). Fortunately, my memory isn't too bad, and I knew you had written a guide entry about how to care for these beautiful plants.
Thank goodness it has a photo and the Latin name, so there's no doubt about which orchid I have.

It's good to know that my entry is serving a purpose
I hope your orchids thrive and like their new home.

Well, now that I've bookmarked your entry, they have at least a chance.

I went shopping today, and by chance saw the very orchids in the shop. They looked incredibly poorly, whereas mine looks exactly like it did on Sunday. I'm just glad that I'm so forgetful about watering my plants, I guess I'd have killed them unknowingly had I watered them each day.

Poorly orchids is how i've ended up with so many I rescued all but two of my orchids from certain death, I don't have room for any more.

You need a larger house.

Seriously, it's a shame they're sold in shops where there's nobody who knows the least bit about them and could give you advice, or even care for those which aren't sold right away.
