I have Friend's book and have found it to be almost useless. However, he suggests that there is an orchid for every climate zone, including Alaska.
Where I got the idea of growing in-ground orchids is from an AOS magazine. I just planted a Sobralia in a huge raised planter box outside on my patio. I kept it in a pot for about six weeks to see if it liked the light in that spot and then put it in the ground yesterday. I'll keep you up on how it's doing.
