    These tiny flowers grow all over my yard. They look like tiny orchids. I wonder what they are. Their leaves are very soft.

    I am really hoping for dragon fruit to grow. I was worried about the 2nd plant because it took it longer to start growing it's nub. I will keep babying them. :) I think I am going to have to just wrap the passion fruit and pray this winter. She is growing way too fast for her pot.

    The tiny orchids are awesome so I just let them grow.

    You must be doing something right... they all look very happy.
    I've noticed some wildflowers that kinda look like your "orchids" growing in the ditches lately. They remind me of morning glories for some reason.
    I have a pineapple in a container. Hopefully I can keep it alive over the winter. I want to get it in the ground in the spring.

    I think we can definitely say you have a green thumb!! Fingers crossed your passionfruit sees it through the winter months. I'm hoping mine will survive in the greenhouse even although it's unheated. I may just wrap it in bubblewrap to be on the safe side.
