Questions about orchids outside

[butterfly_muse]

Good afternoon, everyone!

As the title suggests, I am curious about having orchids outside during the summertime? My husband and I have finally gotten ourselves into a nice townhouse (yay no more apartment!) to which we will be moving in the beginning of May. The end of May/early June is when the weather starts consistently being super nice outside, and this area is wicked humid, which the orchids would probably enjoy.

My question is this: Our townhouse faces to the northeast. So I know at least for phals, they'd probably be happy, but I also have an oncidium and some cattleyas, which..I don't think that's enough sunshine for them (and thus they'd probably end up staying inside in the window with the lights I've had them under for winter)?

Also, there is a shared tree out front (I believe it's a bradford pear that is half in my yard and half in my neighbor's yard) that I could hang them in, would that be too much shade? Enough? Not enough? Other than that one tree, there isn't any shade. That said, with the house facing northeast, the sun isn't that intense in the am and it's going to be shady up front for the rest of the day anyway.

So I guess my question is: can any of my orchids live outside during the summer, if so which types? Or should I just keep them inside?

I just figured that if any of them CAN enjoy the heat and humidity and airflow, they should, lol.

Thanks in advance!
