Hey there!! 
I just wanted to SHARE that my Hubby build my 3rd addition to my Chid Hotel finally!! 
The first one was maybe 3 months ago, then another month for the 2nd, and finally TODAY for the 3rd!!
He told me that "THIS IS THE LAST ONE!!" He hee ha, he told me that on the 1st one  , And the 2nd one!! 
So I know that I'll get the 4th 
The Last pic... The Chid Hotel is closed for business

That is really neat, and so attractive! Gosh, you could do the perimeter of your whole back yard this way!

Jkelee,
Congrats on your orchid hotel additions! Your hubby did a great job, including with the roll downs...I suspect that these are for the cooler nights that you might get in the winter where you are. Good luck on the "4th story"!
When I got my shade house built, I went for broke from the start, and gobbled up as much space in the back yard as possible...the only problem with that is when it's full I'm going to have to be more creative in finding spots elsewhere on the lanai to squeeze in one more orchid...or 2, or 5, or....

 Hi David!! Thanks for kudos! My hubby appreciates it
I asked him to put the blinds up for many things, The Sun right now, hard winds & Rain, and in the winter I'll try it and see!

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.)
