Happy New Year indeed! This is the year of the cow, symbol of "slow and steady" - that seems like a good idea for this year!

This is all I can find on the web.

I wish I could describe what it was like when I growing up in Saigon . On New Year, the whole city is filled with blooms, many blocks of downtown would be reserved for flowers' market.
All the houses would have flower pots, or at least a branch of blooming yellow Mai flower or pink peach flower.
Yes the flowers are actually blooming in January/February outdoors over there. None of this bone killing freezing cold.

The only thing that helps me weather the cold is the promise of the Deepcut orchid show in Holmdel, New Jersey on the 5th to 8th of February.

weee... I won $5 today spinning the lucky wheel at the new years celebration here, I think it translates to flowers market (but only one vendor actually specializes in selling flowers nowadays).
we also bought a bouquet of cut dendrobiums too, it's tradition to buy some sort of flowers.

excellent timing on your Cymbidium sinensis Jorch!
