Well, gang, there's some benefit to being single after all--around here the only one who can gripe is my daughter, and she (typical teenager) spends a lot of time in her room.....
I did have a few no-ID phals and a couple of Onc. hybrids I got and found I didn't care for, so they went to my mom....Now SHE'S buying orchids...Of course, she has a 20 x 20 room (passive solar heat for the rest of the house) with southern exposure and plenty of dappled shade from the gardens, day/night temp swings of at least 10 degrees, and ambient humidity above 50% even in the winter. Broms (even the difficult ones) grow and flower freely, and she's got a staghorn fern that's the size of a golden retriever, so I figure she's got great orchid growing conditions. I'm SO jealous (grin).
