Re: Orchids
Those are lovely! This is one of my ascocendas in bloom this past winter. They're trickier to grow indoors than phalaeopsis; only last about 3 years with me, but I can't resist them; love the color. It lives in the bathroom too, in the cold weather and summers outdoors where it is now; hope it will bloom again![IMG]
such a shame.

Re: Orchids
Orchids thrive on neglect, a window sill is good but don't let them sit in a draught, the steam from the shower helps mine but they do like an occasional misting if in a drier area.And don't pick the leaves off if they look a bit brown, and leave the stalks on after they've finished flowering, and water them with warm water (not a lot) twice a week but only once in winter.
