This is Kokopelli who protects my home. He was given to me by a friend the day before Hurricane Floyd struck Raleigh, NC in September 15-16, 1999. Kokopelli was outside when 4 large Oak trees fell across my yard during hurricane. Nothing touched my house.


Kokopelli is a ancient god of the American desert southwest and is know as The Flute Player. Kokopelli is regarded as the universal symbol of fertility for all life, be it crops, hopes, dreams, or love.

I own many orchids. The orchids spend about 12 months in a greenhouse and 3 months in bloom.
