I said I was going to continue the blog about mom's roses but I arrived from the cinema with a headache and transformed into a migraine. So yesterday I didn't log into the Internet. Sleep most of the day and took Tylenol plus Motrin (my migraine medicine finished
). Anyway...
I was telling you about the "Night's Lady". This is a flower that blooms only at night and last for the night only. It blooms once every few months, so it's not like most of the flowers that can bloom several times in a month... So my mom had this plant for several years and every time the plant had several flowers ready to bloom we spent the night in vigil for the flower to open. The plant usually has 1-2 flowers only, but one time it had a whooping total of 5!!! The flower is white with a yellow center and looks like the water lily or the Lotus and has a very strong and longlasting fragance. Usually mom asked me to take the pics of the flowers and then she cut one and place it on the refrigerator so it could last for a few days. I tell you it was like a holiday. LOL
I have to check mom's pic to see if there's one and scan it to post.
The rose in the pic already is "fading", but the little bud behind already bloomed too. Also a small orchid is blooming. Does it mean I'll be taking more pics?! And now that I got a camera with a photo printer I think I'll be printing more flower pics. Oh no! What have I done?!
