Really? I tried a couple of paphs. in the past and they died. I thought they were hard to grow.
I too am new to orchids. The only ones I've grown successfully are the Cymbidiums and a few here and there I've had for several years that I haven't managed to kill.
The question is can I keep all the newly purchased ones alive long enough to put in the GH that is being put up. That's the other problem. My husband it putting it up, sooooo I have a long wait.

It took him over a month to put in a new kitchen sink. I was doing dishes in the bathtub for weeks!
I will be getting some Phals. real soon. promise.
Jenny, I'm adding the Cym. you gave me now to the list.
