These orchidariums are all new to me and I'm definitely intrigued. Yours has got to be one of the most dramatic and interesting I've seen so far. I love the way the lights are reflecting on these plants, love the setup of the plants with the spagh in these tube shaped mounds...just love what I'm looking at. I don't have the extra cash flow to buy one but how I wish I did. Your setup is fantastic.
