Types of Orchids and where to get them

[amycalmes]

Hello all,

I am new to orchid growing and I currently have one Phalaenopsis Orchid. I am looking to venture into some other types of orchids now and was wondering what you guys think about the Pleurothallis Caligularis (miniature orchid)...Are they very difficult to grow? I have seen lots of photos and they look amazing and I'd like to try to grow one. Also, I live near Ann Arbor, MI. Does anyone have any suggestions of where I could go to get this type of orchid...or just anywhere where the staff members actually know about orchids...because I went to the nursery at Lowes and they seemed completely clueless. Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks all!
