Yes, I have been very lucky. It was my Amazon travels that sparked my interest in orchids. I'd always loved house plants but thought that orchids were too difficult. Actually, they're among the easiest plants IMO!

Here's a photo of my current collection on the windowsill.

I usually don't cut the dead flower spikes until they are completely withered. And I don't give them bottled water! Tap water is fine, but from a well, so I don't know what impurities are in it. I have a water filter (Pur) which I use for drinking water and occasionally give my orchids a sip.
