I am an expert on incorporating orchids into the house. However, going from 14 to 66 will take more expertise than I can muster. I move mine every two weeks or so, with excuses that the lighting isn't right, or I think it looks better over here. Whenever I plan to go shopping, I do the orchid shuffle. It messes my hubby up and he has no clue how many I have/had/or will have. He'll say, "where did that white one go, and where did this pink one come from?" And I will tell him I had to swap them because of new research I did, and they weren't getting the right light. Works every time. When he sees a strange new one, I say that it's been upstairs in the dormer windows cause I thought I saw something on it, so quarantined it for a bit. That part is almost true cause I quarantine all my newbies until I am satisfied they are okay and able to play nice with the others.
One day he looked around, and said "wow, where did all these come from? You have a gazillion here!" I just smile. He's somehow under the impression that I split alot of orchids. Hmmmm I might have mentioned that once or twice.
I can't help it! I'm an orchidaholic!

My husband suggested taking mug shots of my orchids the other day so he would know if any new ones sprung up
