Question Help with Terrestrial Orchids for a fence

I live in SE Florida and I want to cover my A/C with a fence. Due to the poor soil, I have thought about putting a fence with full sun orchids (terrestrial vandas?). Can anybody advice?
Thanks

You can buy ground orchids like cyprepidiums or epidendrums,yes.and there is no terrestrial vandas
I'd say you can also put bushes and other foliage plants
Rather than orchids because they are not bushy unless they are many to make that fence beautiful. But it's your choice

I have seen epidendrons 5 feet high planted like a fence and blooming. I lost 5 lbs just drooling over them. He had all different colors.

Yeah, AJ could grow vandas there. SE Florida would be perfect.
