Ah..I see! Lovely! Scott took me to the Orchid festival at Kew Gardens for my 30th birthday...Oh I was so young...anyway, it was lovely. But the best Orchids I’ve ever seen were in Edinburgh botanic gardens. They have the Vanilla Orchid and some incredible slipper Orchids there too.

OH cool. I'd love to have a vanilla orchid. Not sure I trust myself though, lol. They are expensive.

They are also massive! The one in Edinburgh is ...oh..I can’t remember very well, but certainly several metres long! I don’t think it would make a good houseplant.
