First flowering after five years in wait… orchids from a cutting my godmother, ‘Aunty Fred’ gave me from her garden, from a cutting that was from her mother’s garden.
Have these lovelies on my desk today to remind me that some things can be a long while in the creating but hopefully something worth all the work will emerge in the end.

Hi Zoe
An old saying: Good things come to those who wait.
Some others takes a little while longer in the making,
That is Orchids and good books.
Tanti Auguri.
Augusto.
Grazie mille, Augusto, such lovely words. Much appreciated. I’m in the process of writing two books back-to-back but hopefully will be worth the wait. Tante belle cose. Zoe xx
