Hi
I'm growing in a window in a condo in Northern Virginia. Got bitten by the bug less than a year ago. I have been buying plants that probably won't grow in my environment but I'm willing to accept the challenge.
Nick

Hi Nick,

Welcome! Give us some info on your plants and the kind of light and culture they get. Post some pictures if you can. Phals and Paphs grow nicely indoors and if you check out the thread growing spaces you will be amazed at all the variety that the forum users grow in.

Beware orchids are addicting!

NancyG

Welcome Nick. I guess the fun part is figuring out how to get your orchids to thrive in your specific environment.

Hi Nick, and welcome I bet you'll be amazed with what you can grow in your place when you do a little research, and perhaps some adjustments in your growing space(s)

Welcome, Nick. I also grow on windowsills. You will find lots of good information here. Don't forget to show us pictures of your orchids.
