Actually I don't have ANY chids! I'm just so overwhelmed with the choices. What's an easy one. I saw a Sharry baby the other day at a nursery and almost took the plunge. My allergies were acting up that day so I couldn't smell the scent........I'm looking for complete guidance....I figured in all of my years experiencing different species of the plant world, its time for me to step up my game

(to orchids!)

Phals are always a good place to start. The Sharry Baby should be a pretty good starter as well.
Keep us posted!

Thanks so much...I'm thinking about going with Sharry-I don't think I could resist the scent. Now if I can keep my cats away from it....a whole other story
