I don't do most Dendros or large, "floofy orchids". For me it's minis (like Angraecoides), Masdies, Paphs, and others that crept in somewhere along the line. See my orchid list for complete collection (usually not current.)

Wow... great articles. So hard to choose! I've now set a new goal to write up an article in (the far off!) future. I see I can sharpen my writing skills as well as orchid growing skills here!

Cheers,

First of all, welcome!

Second, you must tell us more. I have killed and bloomed many a Phal and one thing I know for sure.... what they like, they like! I found that my best location is south window (latitude 42 degrees north) back about 3 feet from glass. I figure I'm getting about 1000 foot-candles light. Hope this helps.
