Laelia anceps outdoors year round?

[margitks]

Hello fellow orchid enthusiasts!

I am considering the purchase of a Laelia anceps for my balcony.
We are in Washington State at the Southern end of the Puget Sound.
Our balcony is pretty sheltered, South facing with dappled shade starting around 1p.m. (large evergreens).
Temperatures in the winter very seldom go down below freezing. If it would get below 32 degrees, I would put the plant up against the house to shelter and if necessary, cover it for protection over night.
Night temperatures can stay between the low 40's & mid 30's from about the end of October through March / April.

I'm looking for opinions and input, if those winter temperatures might be too low, for too long for a Laelia anceps to stay outside year round.
What are your thoughts?

Thank you!
Margit
