bad new..evacuated growing area :(

Help,

When we first get into orchids, we tend to obtain any plant which attracts us, like indiscriminate bees! Gradually, we focus on those plants which grow best for us in the area designated for them. However, just like in nature when the environment changes, we often have to adapt. Your adaptation may be in moving into the cool growing genera which can be grown outside all year long in your area.

Although you are in Zone 6a, I am not immediately familiar with the zone highs, lows and humidities.

Good luck in whatever you do.

Help,

If I had taken the time to research zone 6a, I would have understood your problem! For some reason I thought you were in California. Outside is obviously not an option except for the summer months for some genera.... maybe. Good Luck in whatever you come up with.
