Me: "…"

My Orchids: *Perfect rendition of Michael Jackson's crazy tilt from the Smooth Criminal choreography*

I hope this is okay here, and that the joke is taken in the spirit of fun I intend it and not as an off-topic interruption. But if it is I apologize!

I was just watering my leaf babies, and, as is my tradition, gently making fun of them while doing so. I have some tilters, some slanters, some silly rascals who like to lean to one side like they've been slamming vodkas, and this image just popped into my head.

As far as I know it doesn't hurt them so long as you don't let them lean too much! Just a funny little thing orchids like to do sometimes. I mean, I suppose they grow sideways in nature, so it makes sense!

    Orchids grow upside down in the wild if I’m not mistaken. It’s to prevent water from sitting in their crowns so they don’t rot. They will always lean lol.

    God it’s so true, mine are all sideways and eager to tip over onto the floor.
