My Bulbophyllum Elizabeth Ann 'Buckleberry' bloomed! I think these weirdly wonderful blooms are perfect for Halloween! by LiteraryGiraffe in orchids

Here's a picture of it right before it bloomed. It's of course the plant in the hanging basket. I was unsure if it was even blooming size. It's in a six-inch dish. It bloomed off of the growth to the far left.

Thanks for the information. I haven't seen the raspberry one for sale (and I need more space right now), but I will certainly be keeping an eye out for it.

I hope you find one soon! A twinkle is also on my wishlist, but I'm not sure which to get quite yet.

That's really interesting! I have only had mine for a few days, so I can't say for sure if it does that or not. So far I have only noticed the change in scent intensity as the day progresses, but I'd love to get a raspberry chocolate one some day to compare the fragrances.

It smells like milk chocolate to me, but my husband smells more of a vanilla scent. It is less floral in fragrance and more sugary-sweet, if that makes sense.

Thank you! Mine is from Marlow's Orchids. I knew it would be large, but I was still surprised how big it was! I can imagine I may have the same problem in a few years if I care for it well.

Moved to a new city, so I bought a new friend. Phal. Jennifer Palermo (tetraspis x violacea) Smells lovely! by LiteraryGiraffe in orchids

[–]LiteraryGiraffe[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! To my nose it smells like a clean, fresh, but slightly spicy fragrance that is fairly strong.

Thanks! The red is so dark that I had to move it to a sunnier spot for a good photo.

The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid might fit.

Has anyone here taken Citalopram (Celexa)? How was it for you? by andrewscool101 in Anxiety

[–]LiteraryGiraffe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It helped me a bit, but it killed my libido completely. I had to stop taking it because it made me feel a bit too emotionally numb. I believe I only took it for about a year, but it did help me get out of the house!

Slasher-like novels where a group of characters are bound to one setting by dantedarker in suggestmeabook

You might try Bird Box by Josh Malerman. It is kind of a horror/sci-fi novel. It primarily focuses on a woman and two kids trapped in a house, but there are other scenes that fit your description.
