About 50. I tried counting them last week when I brought them all in the house to protect from the cold, so I think it's right around 50.

I have 60 unique orchids in my closet, but there is a few that I have multiples because I divided them, so the pot count is closer to 70.

That's how it starts. I'll bet if this poll runs again a year from now, your answer will be at least 50+.

I can only wish. The new two are christmas presents to myself.

We have a 1 bedroom apartment with very limited room so its tight already with the two I have and the large aloe plant as well.

When we get a house, I'll have an orchid/gaming room.

87 plants, probably some duplicates in there but mostly unique.

It's amazing how they all fit in as at this time of year only 3 are outside, and only about 15 in the greenhouse, the rest are all around the house. I look back at old photos of my living room and it looks really bare because I've got so used to having so many in there.
