Thanku Camille, summer temps in Auckland can be up to around 28C. The orchids would get th full blast of the afternoon sun. Im not sure sarcs could take that?
From what I've read about Sarcs, that's just about their limit. But if you aren't getting those temps on a daily basis in the summer, they could be a nice option for you.
