Orchid blooming January 2012
I have a lot of orchids so this is a job - take out when it is nice and bring in when it is nasty.
I don't even know their names or how to care for them except I know not to let them freeze to death. I hang them under trees and water them with fish poop from my pond when the weather is good. I need a greenhouse in winter for these orchids; any referrals?
