Help me choose display areas
OK, all these lovely phals have followed me home. They live in a nice grow room with artificial lights, but of course I want to display them in my living areas when they bloom. Problem is, I don't have the ideal spot for this. Here are some options - which ones would be best (choose more than one if appropriate - I have a lot of orchids!):
1. Foyer - narrow ledge about 5 feet across from the front door. Cold drafts, obviously.
2. Living room - low light, only light comes from east facing window shaded by porch roof, lows in mid to low 60's at night
3. Dining room - moderate light, direct late afternoon sun on the blooms from an unshaded west window (can't cover the window - high light houseplants live there), lows mid to low 60's at night
4. Kitchen/family room - half wall between these two rooms - unvented gas fireplace, gets quite warm and dry, don't think the flowers like it there much
5. Far end of the family room, away from fireplace - gets down to lower 60s at night, but good light
6. Powder room - no light at all, except when in use, warmer than the other places
Help! I need a different house!
