    I’m really intrigued about the plant people that found their way here. @[email protected], @[email protected] —like, how?
    Don’t get me wrong, I’m glad you’re here. We can talk plants. I’m sort of into orchids. But did you get here by accident?
    Just honestly interested.

      Well I like plants and I like pussy, so this is some pretty great and also rare crossover content that I’m quite enjoying tbh :)

      (Also there is a very old image macro that is somehow relevant to this but I will most likely never be able to find it)

      Additionally, do you have any cool orchids my dude?

        I don’t know, maybe someone can help you out. It’s amazing what they can ID.
        There’s nothing blooming right now, so I can’t show you anything. I don’t do the regular phals anymore, which would be blooming. I’m sort into dendrobiums and oncidiums. I’d like to do my own hybrids, but I don’t have the space for it.
        I bought vials before. That was a nightmare. Hundreds of baby orchids. Just everywhere. I had to make shelves in my windows out of books to hold trays of baby orchids. Every piece of plastic from the grocery store became a tray for orchids. I was giving them away to everyone I knew.
        I think people avoided me because I might saddle them with plants.
        I just didn’t want to let any of them go without a chance.

        in the end, I didn’t really get anything good.
        just normal dendrobium hybrids

        edit for an image of last time I had a good pot of phalaenopsis:
