WOW! not only do you have the perfect climate for growing orchids, also for growing many great carnivorous plants. welcome to ob! this picture I have is from mostly growing indoors. I grow out 4-5 onths of the year.
Welcome to the Orchid Board. Glad you joined! That was a great intro. Its very cool that your parents supported you in your quest to learn about orchids at such an early age.
