I say I’m stopping at twenty. I have had to manipulate my numbers a bit…..two snake plants count as one plant, and two orchids count as one plant. That gave me room for a Calla Lily, and a Pony Tail Palm, that I couldn’t resist! Number is at twenty!!,🤣🤣🤣

Oh Roberta, I can give all kinds of advice for setting limits. Tip#23 If it's hanging it doesn't count.

Do you know the “10 000-hour rule”?
The key to achieving true expertise in any skill is simply a matter of practicing in the correct way, for at least 10 000 hours.
I think we can extrapolate this to the orchid hobbie.

No no no.
Lots of houseplants increase the humidity in your house.
Houseplants are GOOD for your orchids. |

Shoot, I'm not even the OP and I'm sitting here nodding along, thinking of how I can justify more -- you guys are terrible influences! |
