I can't remember where they decided to move to? I hope everything is okay, as we have not heard from her in quite a while.

I only have one, which has not flowered for the past year. So I moved it down to the warehouse which is colder at my work and it is now growing new roots etc. So maybe it will flower at some point as well.I have one too. It flowered continuously for 2 years and has taken a break for most of this year.
A couple of weeks ago a new flower shoot started to appear

We have a few trees near us that are pruned by the local electric/phone companies around the wires like yours. Must be some rule to only trim back the bits that might impact the transmission line, forget what the tree looks like, or what the homeowner thinks! Makes for some interesting shapes.

Cold and windy start to our day - freezing out, but sunny.

For the most part... My furry Dragon was darting around like a banshee the whole time we were trying to move the plants inside. Then he darted OUTSIDE. My significant other apprehended him and put him in jail for the rest of the orchid moving exercise. Naughty Dragon!

Same here. I think in some areas they've been trying to replace trees they've had to remove with trees that don't grow as tall.
For large oaks, however, removal and replacement are not viable options.
Welcome to the club....running ahead of Jack Frost! I have all of our potted fig trees and elephant ear plants, one hibiscus...all safely tucked out of Frost’s harm.
Mine lives on the north-facing kitchen windowsill

Your orchid is in much better shape than mine. The ones that came in from the porch last night are quite ratty and tattered at the moment.I have one too. It flowered continuously for 2 years and has taken a break for most of this year.

Yes it does. The wind also plays a role in the shape of the trees in my picture.

On the indoor flowering plants “theme” - is anyone else’s Christmas Cactus getting ready to bloom? Our old stand by plant must have 100 or buds now developing, some lobes with three individual buds, most with two.
Once the temps cool, and the nights are long and dark, this plant knows what to do.
