Looking for orchid suggestions
Hello! My friend and I share an orchid growing hobby and almost a birthday (1 day apart). We have decided to gift each other an orchid for our birthdays. I love it cus I get a cute suprise that I never think of keeping. I want suggestions for this year though!! I have looked and looked and I just don't know what to get her so want suggestions.
The requirements she (and I for her also) has placed forth:
-must be on the smaller end....nothing that is super tall, or super big.
-nothing that takes some crazy care requirements. She is VERY good with high humidity orchids BUT she has to keep them in a special chamber that she can't really display. I would prefer something she can display.
-must grow under grow lights well. She LOVES miltoniopsis, but they don't love her environment so much. She keeps it cooler, but it can get warm. (Think 66-70 degrees)
She had some orchids that didn't do so well so she pretty much cleaned out her collection. She has phals but she says they always die on her. I want something not as common. I would like a prolific bloomer. Maybe I am asking too much, but wanted to see what suggestions I get. Thanks!
