I have about 100 on the upper back porch deck and another bunch under neath on the lower deck and some ratty ones setting on a folding aluminum table in part sun beside the house. I think a lot of them will be heading to Blue Ridge Orchid Society for their October Chinese Auction and Wine and Cheese party. My house is shaded with overhanging porches so it is too dark to grow orchids inside, but I jam everything into a small greenhouse in winter or set them in front of a sliding glass door on shelves. One has to steel oneself against buying the sale orchids when they have just finished blooming or are half price.
