Greetings to you, my dear readers!
If you remember, last time, saying goodbye to friends, Masha asked them to find interesting information about the flower for the letter "O", but at the same time stipulating that they should not tell just what sort of flower, and about the exotic.
The next morning, both brothers were at her house with a guilty and at the same time happy.
• What are we Shine like two copper Nickel? - welcoming them, asked Masha.
• Well, we're here... I brought you flower, exotic. Want you looked and admired him.
With these words Eugene gently pulled out a cellophane pack gorgeous pale purple Orchid.
• Lord, how are you able to convey and not dented, not broke, barely breathed the girl, looking up in wonderment at a beautiful flower. - Where did you get that?
• Imagine, found my grandmother. Stood almost in sight, and I didn't pay attention until you gave us yesterday on this mission. Beaming, boasted of big brother.
• Well at least not smart enough to cut him and brought in a pot, in which grew the flower, - said Masha, - otherwise how would you bring him back?
• Besides, it does not necessarily have to carry a flower here would be quite enough of drawing and its description.
Suddenly the boy frowned sharply, lowering his head, sad at the same time sighed.
• Well, it, ' laughed the girl, as always to the lesson not prepared. Sit down - two!. I should go back to rap for you!
The boys happily plopped down on the couch and prepared to listen to their strict teacher.
• It is, indeed, pretty exotic flower, but to call it rare will not work. It grows in almost every corner of the globe except Antarctica. However, varieties of it, are quite diverse, in every area of the earth - its suitable climatic conditions.
• Do you know what the Orchid is one of the most long-lived flowers? In nature can live to a hundred years, in the greenhouse, however, a bit less to seventy.
• Varieties of this flower are a great many, so we won't talk about all. I just talk a little about those that I like.
• Well, for example, you have probably heard the name as "lady's slipper**". This is the most common type of **Orchid**** growing in our country. Look how interesting it stems.
• Really like the slipper - surprised boy.
• I also really like orchids as "Cattleya", "Anacamptis" pyramid, "Potinara", "Bulbophyllum frosty"...
• And the beauty of the Orchid called "Flying duck". She really look like her.

• Multiply orchids babies (side stems), cuttings and division of rhizomes.
• By the way, do you know why orchids have so many varieties? They can pollinate each other regardless of species, which then appear new and unusual species.
• The plant is beautiful, will please the eye of any person, but, unfortunately, the care for this beautiful flower is quite complicated.
• For each variety of flower has its own temperature regime, the rules of watering and irrigation, so before you acquire this beauty, you have as much detail as possible, to study all the nuances. I know many mom friends who bought orchids, but they do not like.
• In addition, they are quite susceptible to various diseases.
• Bouquets of orchids do not, but very successfully used them to create beautiful compositions.
• Well, finally, I want to say that this flower since ancient times was considered the most exotic, unusual plant, which Confucius called the "King of fragrant flowers".
Masha looked at his friends, who sat with a pensive look and asked:
• What do you like? Remember? The second time I will not repeat, and tomorrow will check your notebooks where you will need to record all that he learned from me today, and, of course, draw this flower.
• Yes, we are all clear, thank you, you are very good at telling you all! - excitedly talking to Eugene and Victor. - Well, now, let's go run through a meadow, play something?
• Why not, ' agreed the girl, and before they long evening frolicking near her home.
Then they parted, having agreed about a new meeting.
It's time to say goodbye to us.
Thank you to future meetings!
