Once in a Blue Bloom

Case 5 · Easy

Once every seven years, and only after dark, the midnight orchid opens, and tonight Larkspur Glasshouses were packed to watch it happen. Mr. Ellery, an orchid collector, had waited all seven of those years for this evening. Biscuit, less patient, preferred the compost. Mr. Ellery was found dead, with the watering can lying nearby. Whoever had the watering can did it.

Who killed Mr. Ellery?
