Interested in Oncidiums and Miltoniopsis, where & what?
I have been bitten by the Orchid addiction bug! At present I have 2 Paphs and 6 Phals (which include 2 keikis recently potted) and one mini Phal. I'm interested in branching out a bit and growing my collection. I live in the Great Lakes region and in the winter I keep the house 72 and while the house gets warm to hot in the summer I do use A/C, honestly it depends on the day and how I feel, sometimes I let it warm up. All but two of my current plants are at an east window that gets a decent amount of morning light, direct, but then more indirect in the afternoon and on. The other two are a bit quarantined on the floor under a large south window.
I'm interested in picking up an Oncidium and even a Miltoniopsis. So far I plan to visit Hausermann's in IL at which they have some Milton varieties but I'm interested in more options for it and Oncidium. What are the best varieties to get for a newbie? And where do you suggest if I order?
Thank you!
