Default Hello there!
Hi! I live in Sweden and have been growing orchids since 11 years. I grow in a large wardian case and on the windowsill. I have limited space..but i think I have about 90 orchids for the moment. I`m soon going to buy another case..(need more space..and want more orchids.. )
My favourites are Bulbophyllum,Dendrobium,Vanilla, Angraecoids and Pleurothallids.

Sounds like you've got some interesting stuff happening over there in Sweden

How do you grow vanilla indoors?

Default Vanilla indoors
I grow my vanilla vines in my case..they are not too long yet. The longest is imperialis which is about 2,5meters. It grows in a pot and then up hanging around a tree trunk.I grow them all in pots with a mix of soil and bark with a little sphagnum. I have planifolia and variegata, pompona and two imperialis.I have not flowered them yet but i have heard about folks who have..indoors..so its possible and very fun!

Welcome to the Orchid Board! I love looking up pictures of Wardian Cases, infact they are the reason I grow in terrariums, modern Wardian Cases. Glad you joined up!
See my article:http://www.orchidboard.com/Growing-o...arium-vivarium
