Okay, so apparently vanilla is pretty easy going as far as it goes (at least based on my browsing of the level of detail for other orchids on here)...
So IF I had gotten the bug because of you people

, what is a good flower family to start with for a total moron (well, okay, I'm not a moron, but this is a new experience for me lol). I'm inclined to find something at the local Lowes (they always carry some generic orchids there), just because Im not out much money if I kill it, but... I'm sure that there is a species (or 3

) that would be good for a rank novice if they had a better "upbringing"...
I can offer rooms with amazing sun, filtered sun,and shade, so in terms of environmental needs, there is a lot of flexibility.. I'm just wondering what species would be easier to keep alive while learning..
(it's the pictures, I was really okay when I was just asking questions about vanilla, but the pictures really just pushed me over the edge

dang you all

).
