[epiphyte]

This is a nail biting time of year for me as the temperatures continue to drop for my outdoor orchids. I checked on weather.com and saw that it hit 36 degrees last week. Brrrrr. Here are some of the epiphytic orchids that I have outdoors...

Bifrenaria harrisoniae (potted)
Dendrobium delicatum 'Rosimina Brown'
Dendrobium kingianum
Dendrobium nobile (unknown hybrid)
Dendrobium nobile
Dendrobium speciosum var. hillii 'Don Brown' (growing soooo slowly)
Dendrobium teretifolium (growing vigorously... wonderful roots)
Dendrobium Zeschia Lynn (budding)
Encyclia hanburyi
Epidendrum parkinsonianum (blooming)
Laelia albida (blooming, small wonderfully scented flowers fragrant the whole area)
Laelia anceps (in spike)
Laelia gouldiana
Laelia pumila Coerulea My Blue Heaven x Sanbar Ind
Laelia/Schomburgkia superbiens (spike broke off because hit the top of shade cloth...ughhh)
Myrmecophila tibicinis? (wonderfully turgid leaves, hollow pseudobulbs)
Oncidium flexuosum (climbing)
Oncidium ornithorhynchum (in bud with fragrant chocolate, vanilla scented flowers)
Rhyncholaelia digbyana (potted)

All are mounted except for the two indicated and all are under green shade cloth.

Which epiphytic orchids do you grow outdoors year around and what are some of the coldest temperatures that they have been subjected to?
