Default The Greenhouse is ablaze in color!!

This is my very first blooming season with my greenhouse! I love the smell of the "room" when I open the doors...I love standing in the doorway and realizing that it's mine!!!! I thought I'd share some of my "views"...enjoy!!

1. Paph. Saint Swithin (philippinense x rothschildianum)
2. Paph. Matthias Fourman (victoria-mariae x stonei)
3. Brsa. Orange Delight 'Starbeck' (Ada aurantiaca x Brassia Mary Traub Levin)
4 and 5. Epi. Nursery Rhyme x Epi. rufum - 60 buds on a 24" spike!!
6. Epy. Serena O'Neill (Epicyclia Mabel Kanda x Encyclia cordigera)
7. Epi. ciliare
8. C. Chocolate Drop 'Volcano Queen'
9. Aergs. citrata
10. My "view"

Default Nice job!

Just beautiful! Your blooms are so gorgeous and it's great that you have such a variety. I have to admit, I'm a bit envious! I live a little south of you, down in West Palm Beach and I have to keep a shadehouse rather than a 'true' enclosed green house for three reasons... June, July, and August. The incredible, unforgiving heat of those months is never kind to my poor plants, even with the increased circulation. But your plants look so happy! What do you do for temperature control? I know it still reaches very high temps up there in the summer and it's pretty hot right now for mid-April.

I have those same three problems here too...we have two 8" rotating fans and two roof vents, so far so good but as you mentioned...June July and August haven't come around yet. We also have 60 feet of misting hoses mounted around the perimeter of the g/h. If none of that works, I have my eye on a small portable air conditioner I can easily install!!

Don't feel bad...Laura told me in a conversation earlier this week that I've done the same thing to her!

There's a crazy person locked inside this sweet innocent exterior
