Cynthia Voigts shares a special Valentine custom with us .
" It is usually inhuman , grey and snowfall covered in SW lower Michigan this fourth dimension of yr . These orchids , which I have had for 5- 7 years , recognise me each morning as they are located on a stone mantelpiece in front of the layer . It is a perfect location for them due to above sky lights and humidity from the nearby bath . The rosiness last for months . They set forth flower in November and usually persist in their show thru April to May . Notice the " bosom rocks " setting next to them . My husband pull in them when walking on the beach at Lake Michigan . I state him he is not wild-eyed … maybe I should re - reckon that ! "
