Beauty

When we first put the house up for sale I bought this white cymbidium orchid with one flower out but with a further number of buds that i knew would come out over time.  The plant was $20 from Kalamunda markets, lasted in flower over 3 months and looked great against the dark grey wall in the lounge.  When all the flowers where spent they started to drop off and in the heat they dried this lovely old paper colours.  I couldn't throw them away and collected them in a bowl.  When packing I had to make the decision to finally throw them away, but, a photo would capture there beauty forever.
