I did have some, they were given to me by a friend and they were in bad shape (all the roots were rotted and they had scale) I was also given dens phals and a catt, once I got them growing roots and new leaves (some even had bloom spike!) I got rid of them. So I don't have anymore but if I go to an orchid show this year I may get one

None of my family/friends care about my orchids, but that's ok, I grow them for MY enjoyment.
I hope all your efforts pay off and you are rewarded with lots of flowers!

My mother doesn't really have any hobbies so she doesn't really understand the concept. Growing plants is incredibly rewarding, and it's amazing how plants can essentially last forever with proper care, and they never go out of fashion. The extra oxygen is nice too. Good luck with your plants too!
