Well, Folks:
I guess that is the reason Mother Nature evolved thousands of species of orchids - so that each of us with living in different climates and housing conditions has something in the orchid world to choose from and be successful with!
I certainly would love to keep some of the delicate tropicals, but they seem to know they are in New England when they visit my house. I have to stick to those which can tough out our cold weather and lack of humidity and brightness in the winter.
I always do research before buying now, unlike my first attempts at keeping orchids, in which I went for what caught my eye. Experience is the best teacher.
"Choose wisely, my friends!"
and Happy growing.
