A "little" suggestion...
Haha, "little" suggestion, because I'm asking for advice on miniatures... Get it? Not funny? That's ok. I amuse myself at least.
I want an orchid for INSIDE my house to sit on a north-facing yet still-sunny kitchen windowsill. I currently have a baby fig tree and philodendron doing very well there. It will have to be very small, as the ledge is maybe 4" wide. I am comissioning my very talented sister, who is a clay artisan, to make me a tiny 2-2 1/2" pot. (can go a little larger if needed.) I am more concerned about the plant fitting the pot and living on the sill than adjusting the environment/ potting style to suit the plant.
Any suggestions for species? No hybrids, please. I was thinking Schoenorchis fragrans, but know almost nothing about its needs. Also, most of the ones I've seen are mounted, not potted. Thanks in advance for your help!
(btw- I have double posted this message for the purpose of maximum exposure in the Advanced forum as well as Miniatures Show-and-Tell. If this is a no-no, I won't be offended if one of the posts is deleted.)
