Almost ready for our cooler nights... - Orchid Board

can't really call it winter without getting in trouble here

Everything is now in the orchid room where they will stay until Feb-Mar...with the exception of the Cyms and the Vandas.

This year I'm leaving the Cyms out on the lanai unless we get a freeze and the vandas will get moved in on the nights that we expect temps below 50 and go back out in the day for the brightest sun.

Also, a pic of the tallest Dens! The one on the left has been blooming for months, the one in the middle has 5 spikes FULL of buds ready to open (this is the same plant that had all it's buds eaten overnight a few months back) and the one on the right has 5 spikes just getting started

Love everything I'm looking at, here. Love your growing space too, Susanne. I bet your husband knows where to find you when you've gone missing.

I always love seeing your orchid room Sue. It's so wonderful! Watering must take you forever.
I wish I had your sort of 'winter'. Then my orchids could stay out all year round!
