Repotted the orchid

I stole this one from Ron's old orchid houses before they were demolished after he died. I had no idea what colour it was or anything. I found the little tag inside 'Belinda Turned out it was a Singapote orchid! How appropriate for me. I watched a few hoe to revive orchid videos on Youtube, using banana water, aloe vera water, and have snipped off the dead roots, and removed the old soil. I have potted it up in spagnum moss and a bit of orchid soil from Bunnings. Let's see if it grows. This could be my new thing, orchid growing!

Bernie helped me put up some shed shelves

Tidying up the shed - Easter holiday job.

Poinciana update - she is growing back!

Relief that she is growing back. It will take a while for her to get to the size she was, but I am ok with that, and I am never trimming her again!
