The ever evolving orchidarium

[CoolPhrog]

It still amazes me when you put this many different types of orchids in one growing area just how different each of them is but then you stand back and say "these are all orchids!" I just love the diversity of these plants!

Hoping everyone had a FABulous Thanksgiving Holiday!!!

That tank is just gorgeous, Dana. You should be proud of that!

[CoolPhrog]

Thanx Ross! That means a great deal :-)

Did you build this, Dana? If so, it is very, very good. I've built two, but I think your beats mine.

Hi Ron, thanx but no, I did not build this it's an "authentic" (spoken through clinched teeth) Orchidarium.

My husband and I bought this on one of our trips to Sue's house (the first trip, I think) and picked this up for $200!!! Lights and all.

We have since added one of Marty's misting systems and I just add the fertilizer to the RO that's in a 5 gallon bucket under the case.

Works like a charm!

I've made some changes since I built my first, but wish I had seen yours before doing mine - would probably have made some more changes. I've just started putting plants in it.

Your'e supposed to whisper the "o" word very softly. Did Sue build this? or does official mean that it was built by the "o" word people?

That is so beautiful with such well grown plants. I love your idea of the hanging egg crate panels.
