and very Lilly-like too.

True Gary, and Tink ,but I didn't tease. I was up front with it. it would have been nasty to let you guess. Not mean but funny, usually

I been looking at the pictures you guys post of orchids on here.. I dont remember ever seeing one in real life that I noticed but I remember a song my dad has sang all my life
" I over looked a orchid while searching for a rose" so I just presumed they were ugly flowers.

Hmmm, what's the old saying. It's not nice to fool mother nature.

Yep, looks like a tropical... Do tropicals grow in the desert?

I must say "orchid—cactus" sounds like a contradiction to me.

It does indeed. The magnificent blooms last but a day or two :'(
