Sounds like a budding addiction to me. :-) Welcome to the forum.

You are doing a whole lot better than most of us on this forum if you only have five orchids after a entire year!

Hi,

I think mayres is right!!!

There is always room for one more and that applies forever

d.zaher : I started with one orchid about 6 months ago and I think I have 54 orchids now... Is there something similar to 'methadone' for orchid addiction?, .....I wonder!

I am hoping to get some more too.. perhaps, a few more Vandas which I can hang from the ceiling and overcome the space problem.

I don't have a sun-room or a green house, d.zaher. I am using a small spare room to have the plants on shelves, floor and stands on rollers. Planning to move them all to the basement this spring/summer.

Good luck with your orchids.
