These are the only plants I have that are lovely at this time of year. When it gets under 50 degrees I bring them in the house.

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?

wow I love that orange color!!
Teresa, polite people call it fish emulsion but I get the water from my Koi pond & I know it is fish poop.
