How do you keep/have all those Orchids!? Female
Question How do you keep/have all those Orchids!?

Okay so I told myself no more Orchid browsing, no more OrchidBoard for today, but I couldn't help it.

Feeling guilty for my first and recent impulse ebay buys (3, may end up 4 if no one outbids me!) I found my way back here like a stray dog. And of course I used your latest buys to make myself feel, well, much better. ;-)

Some of you guys are crazy (I'm just jealous)! But how do you do it? I tried to reason that you live in warmer climates than my Midwestern lands, but then there are plenty of you from the cold "Polar Vortex" suffering regions that have in just a matter of months bought 2 and 3 times my 4 (5).

Roomy houses? Greenhouses?

What's the trick, is there one? One week I browsed online sellers, this week it was ebay. OMG, there are SO MANY different Orchid! I mean I knew there were but to see them, well how do you choose?!

I absolutely plan to get some from Hausermann's (my first stop in an Orchid greenhouse it will be) and I already feel guilty about it. So I just had to ask how you mega collectors do it? I think I've said it before but you're almost bad influences, "if so and so got 6 in a month then 7 more next month then 8 more three months later than why can't I..."

Thanks in advance for sharing a bit of insight into your world. I feel like I need a sponsor! Will appreciate all you share from how you display/organize them, how you decide to buy, you get the picture. I wonder if as my collection grows should I get one of those little in house greenhouses for those not flowering and keep them "stored" and compact. SO many questions people, sorry!
