I like orchids (I get it from my mother). I bought a Phalaenopsis (moth orchid) "Fancy Fresco" from Kew Gardens last year, along with one for mum. The orchid was bred specially as part of Kew's 250th anniversary celebrations, and they get a certain proportion of the sale price.

And the first world problem referenced in the post title? She has so many flowers on her that she's top-heavy, and topples over under her own weight unless she's propped against the bathroom wall as well as staked, so I can't photograph her properly. Woe is me.
Behold a casualty of her most recent suicidal dive to the bathroom floor:
(You can also behold the slightly mucky state of my bathroom windowsill, if you like, but we won't talk about that. *whistles*)
