Default My orchid grow area and collection

Here is my collection. I grow them inside, on humidity trays, in an east window, in S/H. I only have a couple in bloom right now, but have some coming that should be very nice.

Still looking great, Jay. How is your black orchid coming along?

It is about to explode. It is too dark to get a picture tonight, but here is one from July. It is just now starting to lose its leaves for the winter. I check daily to see if it starting a spike. I can't wait.

The seedlings are doing great as well. I lost one or two, but still have around 50 Fdk. seedlings. Not bad since there was only supposed to be about 25 in the flask.

Looking good Jay. Don't you just love those carts with adjustable shelves?

The shelves are perfect. I have over 50 plants packed in there. I have room for maybe one or two more little ones, but then I will have to remove some to get some. I really need a place where I can have a greenhouse.

Isn't it amazing how many 'chids we can pack in a small space when need be? Great job and nice display!

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.)
