Unwise decisions

Against my better judgement, and against the advice of a blipper (sorry), I bought this orchid a few weeks ago.

When I got it home – in those heady days before the government sent text messages saying things like ‘New rules in force now: you must stay at home’ – I soaked its dry soil in water and orchid food for a while, then drained it (following the advice of the aforementioned blipper). I’ve fed and watered it twice since then, and it’s still looking ok. There’s hope yet.

(Notice it’s rules not laws at this time.)
