The top shelf are mostly cattleya, right? I can just imagine how heavenly the room must smell when they are in bloom.

Me too; my ledge is only 3.5" wide . I re-purposed a few old springy metal shower caddys that weren't being used anymore to hold my larger clay pots and ceramic catch pots. Here are a couple closeups without the curtains.


Though about and rejected hanging more from the top shelves, but I do like the idea of hanging some from the curtain rods. Hmmm, could maybe accommodate some more minis phals in lightweight plastic net pots. My b-days in a month and a half; I might be able to put more orchids back on my wish list. lol.

I'm still waiting for my catts to bloom, I love the mini phals because they don't take up much room.
if you want to make your window sill bigger you can use a cat shelf that just hooks onto the windowsill

What direction is your window facing? Very nice collection

[Ferns Daddy]

The windows face east, south and west, the west window will be shaded by the trees in the late afternoon the other windows have blinds to help cut some of the sun in the summer
