These are tough because the area they come from naturally (Far East Asia) have nearly freezing winter, boiling hot summer with monsoon, then super dry spring and fall (but occasional rain of course and these are usually found growing right by the ocean, so the air is usually quite humid even when there is no rain).
Yet, it is always of course best to give them good condition as much as possible to keep them happy and flourishing. :)

I have way too many plants now and watering (as much as I love tending my plants) has become a major work for me.
Unfortunately, it is such a hard thing to get rid of healthy plants that I like. so I am rather puzzled at the moment.

I am planning to thin my collection a bit too. I have a few phals that I'm not that thrilled with now that I've had them for a while. I love the minis, and I have two of the big ones that I will keep, but the rest need to find new homes. I'm thinking that I'm not gonna throw them out. I'm gonna talk to the local OS about selling them. I know phals are popular, maybe I have something someone here has been looking for.

That could be an option for you too. Just put them up for sale, then you know they will have a good home and you don't have to feel bad about getting rid of a healthy plant. :)

I know, I have been donating, selling .....

I still have a lot. lol

and it is just a matter of deciding which one to let go of because I really want to keep the ones I like, which is basically almost all of it. hahaha

I am like a slave to my orchids. lol

I feel lucky that I'm pretty new to the hobby and don't have a lot of plants and have already decided that I won't buy a plant if I don't love it. I didn't do that early on though, and bought plants that I thought looked neat at the time, that don't interest me so much now.

So it's probably a lot easier for me to let go, because I'm talking about letting go of some NOID Phals that I've had for less than a year. :D

They are indeed tough! Unless you drown them ;)

My mounted Neo grew solely outdoors here for a couple of years- getting afternoon sun during hot, dry weather. Getting down to a bit below freezing for short periods at night in winter (sheltered). No water, except from the air for long stretches in winter ... ;)
