Default My (humble) orchid rack

This is where I keep most of my orchids. This is on an East facing screened patio, about 4'x8'. I also have a few hoyas mixed in.

Can't help but add my succulents too They're on the front porch (unscreened).

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.)

Be sure to post a picture of the GH when all the 'chids come in for winter! I want to see what your measure of "tidy" is

I really like the look of these rack displays. I have one myself (for the grow window overflow) but I don't seem to have the knack of neatness other have. For me it's cram n jam

Yeah to all of ya with moving everything back inside. We have had nights of 9 (nine ) degrees at night this week so i had to move everything inside already. I have been at for a couple days and don't have room left. I moved some stuff to the bedroom, west facing window hope it works out ok for the vanda's.

I did buy, trade and received some extra chids over the summer.
