Saturday Greenhouse Visit
 

Well, I know it isn't Monday but I trust you'll enjoy some color on an otherwise gloomy day.... there is one bright spot besides the flowers. Tomorrow I'll be at the Greater Lansing Orchid Show.... and maybe, just maybe, I'll take my camera along for the visit. I'm sure there will be others posting pics of the show.



Anyway, back to the pictures ....

Thanks Sheridan... it helps me get through the day also

I envy you Doc being able to keep them in the greenhouse all year. I wish I could do that....

Sheridan

Where do you grow your chids, Sheriden? Lights, windowsill????

what a beautiful cymb....and i love the phals too, very nice!!! good growing!

Doc, during the winter I bring my orchids into the dining room and have them on metal shelving with grow lights. During the spring and summer into early fall I have them in my fiberglass greenhouse. I wish I had been able to purchase a Sunglo double walled greenhouse.

Ranchnanny, Are you going to the Portland show on the 6th? If so I would love to meet you. Betty, Tri Cities, Wa.

Doc, The top of the gh got to 101 yesterday. i checked the light levels and top bench was over 6000 fc. so put the shade cloth on right then and there to prevent sunburn. The exhaust fan is running and keeping most of the house at no more than 86. Betty Your pictures are fantastic. What kind of program do you use to put the names on the pics? I write the newsletter for our society and would love to spruce it up a bit with fancier pictures. Good Luck at the show..
