Looking to Spring
     As the current cold snap retains its icy grip on Atlanta and its inhabitants, I am starting to think about Spring and its promises of warmer weather, rainy weather, and most importantly, return of baseball and plants! More on baseball, once Spring Training gears up. For now, plants.
     I've moved from my downhill-facing, west-facing apartment to an uphill-facing, east-facing apartment. While I have less vegetation to block the sun, I should also have less sun time. I really hope this doesn't dampen the plants to badly; I'll have to look up which plants prefer morning (vs. afternoon) sun.
     What is doing fairly well, is the newest addition to the plant family, an orchid I found placed on the dumpster. I know absolutely nothing about orchids, other than a cursory check of the Wikipedia page a few days ago. I do know that after a month or two of sitting on the shelf, it's generating three or four blooms. So maybe I'll try cultivating some orchids this year.
