I came across this one this morning and realize just how nuts I've been!!!

Here's what it looks like now! No wonder my husband is losing his mind!

Compared to the pictures in my first entry in this thread, things have certainly expanded...just a little

[Tindomul]

Wow, they certainly have! You could probably start your own little orchid farm.

[cb977]

LOL...Tin, I was shocked at seeing the first photos in this thread!

[CodiMN]

I think I still see some open space there Sue...

[caseydoll]

Sue, your room is absolutely gorgeous! I am sooo jealous! I was wondering, how much time do you have spend on them every day? I don't have as many as you but was just trying to get a gauge on how much time it takes to manage that many. Maybe someday I will have have a room like that!

[Grandma M]

It is like orchid heaven. It's fantastic. One question...where is your lounge chair?

[cb977]

Carolyn...you're very bad! That's why I like you so much! (I see a little open space too )

Sarah...thank you I love it out there
I usually spend about 2 hrs in the mornings and another
1 1/2 or so in the afternoon spraying them all when the weather is hot. Now that it's cooled off a little, I skip the morning pampering and just do the 2 hrs in the afternoons instead. When it's time for repotting and actual work, I can get lost out there for hours!

When building your collection, you need to take into consideration how much time you have to spend on them. As much as I love my vandas, I've come to realize that they are a source of extra work and when I'm not feeling great, it is a problem. I'm trying not to get more vandas...trying, anyway

M... That's out by the pool. About 40 of the plants that are now in the room are usually out by the pool too
