thanks yall, im trying to get a photo on here so i can show you exactly what im talking about...  |
That window should be well-loved by all sorts of orchids. Southwest is the way to go in order to get the most natural light in the home, imo. Save for maybe a sunroom...
Anyways- cattleyas and dens closest, with oncs close behind.
Can you move that shelving unit flush with the window? Not that aesthetic, but would take advantage of the most light.
If your windows are double paned or filtered, I've never had a problem with plants burning or getting pissed. My phals love being flush with one of my southern windows. But mine are filtered/double paned.
If not, just slowly transition them.
Just saying, it seems to work for her!
