I'm new to this forum and looking forward to learning more about orchids from this diverse group . I've been growing them for about 12 years and learn something new almost weekly. The Cattleya as my avatar was my first, purchased in '97 from a nursery in Hawaii. I have had 12-15 plants for many years and have lost a few. The summers here are long, hot and humid. The hot part with the sun is the major problem so I'm looking for a better shaded enclosure outdoors, greenhouse or similar. Open shelving with shade cover is not working, too much wind and exposure. An 8x10 greenhouse is probably what I need.
Any recommendations from those of you in a hot climate?
Thanks, and Cheers.
