A question?

Anyone know if I could actually mount an orchid on a tree in my area? Or does it get too cold here in the winter? It would be neat to have an orcid mounted on my tree in the back yard.

My guess is that the annual cold (sometimes VERY cold) spell, periodic snowfall and occasional tornado/high winds would make it a rough go for an orchid. I consider Birmingham home and wouldn't try it there.

You can always mount one on a plaque and bring it in for the weather.
