Purple orchid picture
Above is a picture of purple orchids that are growing in the backyard of some friends of mine living in Thailand. Most people grow orchids in their homes or, if they are fortunate, will have a greenhouse for them. I always thought that orchids were really very hard to grow, but have since realized after learning a little bit about them and giving them maybe a little bit extra care, they're a lot easier to grow than I had thought. We have seven orchid plants now and very much enjoy their blooms.
