I am so lucky to live in a place where I can grow so many orchids outdoors. It makes lots of things easy. On the other hand, I'm not set up for many of the warm/intermediate orchids that other people grow so well. Can't have it all (even though I try...) When I started out in orchids I lived in a condo... the spare bedroom became the "greenhouse". Small space outside... I watered a lot. Got a nastygram from the homeowner's association about moss growing on my front steps... that pushed me over the edge, I sold the condo and bought a house with a yard. The addiction won...
