Lola

so, apparently i am just completely incapable of getting to sleep at a decent hour! 2 am always seems to roll around and i always find myself finding new things to entertain me whether it be something to read or music to listen to. i swear, i really was tired about three hours ago!

i am laying in bed, staring at my orchid, lola, mainly because i dont know when it will be the last time i get to look at her.

(i am aware that it is a bit strange to talk about a plant in such a way, but i have had her for about 2.5 years and love her so much! she really is like my child! haha and orchids are my favorite flower. i just love how much beauty she brings every blooming season!)

i dont have a picture of her because she is not in bloom right now and i lost the pictures i did have of her when my computer crashed. i would post a picture of what she looks like right now, but i find it too sad.

her blooms look like the picture below.


it upsets me how little light my apartment gets. after being here for only about a month and a half, lola is already dying. no matter where i put her, she doesnt get enough light. it saddens me everytime i have to pluck off a dead leaf. i am just glad that she has bloomed three times for me. hopefully i will be able to find a way to nurture her back. maybe i can find some sort of artificial sun bulb of some sort?

love.

  1. I want an orchid! I thought they were super hard to grow and take care of?

  2. i'm sorry about your beloved my love. maybe now you can find a plant that needs little light that fits in at your new rainbow! i'm sure there are some lovely ones that want you to be their mommy.
