Rat Rack under shade
http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w...reenhouse1.jpg

very nice! I bet your enjoy having the rat rack OUTSIDE the house! lol no smells that way:)

Wow that's just beautiful! I hope someday I can have a nice greenhouse like that.

I'm so excited because I just noticed today that my vanda is sending out a flower spike! I thought I wasn't any good at keeping orchids..

WOW! I am completely green with envy!

You really keep everything neat and clean - the plants all look very well taken care of!

Thanks for posting those pics - it really made my day :banana:

feel free to post more whenever you want! I'll eat them up!

Super cool Raul!!!

It is a blessing, I probably wouldn't breed rats if it wasn't for that

I started out with a little roll of plastic and woodframed geenhouse I could barely fit in.(That was after the kitchen table with sunny window)

It is very rewarding to bloom your own orchids. Vandas have amazing blooms, best of luck.

Thanks Pat, I know the girlfriend is a plant lover, you guys gotta come by and say hi some time.

Wow! Just beautiful!! What is the flower in picture #5? It is beautiful!! We're building a greenhouse onto the front of our castle in Eastern Oregon. It will be down (in elevation) from the southerly front of the house and will also act as a heat sink for the radiant flooring, etc. We hope to put fruit trees and beautiful flowers and herbs in it....snakes too, maybe...
Just a lovely patio you have; thank you for sharing. :)

That is a phalenopsis or moth orchid. The white ones are the most common, that one is a spotted variety. They come in 100's of variations and colors.
Here is a purple one

They are fairly easy to grow and are considered a low light orchid. A sunny window with some shading can work. The best thing is the blooms last a long time, sometimes months.

Hey, we can have a PattyCakes and Heather and Raul meet up to talk about Orchids!! :D I'm down

April here are some of my vandas hanging in the greenhouse
http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w...gingvandas.jpg

And here is a bloom of one of my favs "Princess Mikasa" it is a cross of a vanda and an ascocentrum called ascocenda. They dont get as big as vandas and bloom at younger size/age.

Here are some examples of Cymbidiums, they need to be outside to cool(30's-40's) in the winter or they wont bloom.

Here is a red one arranged with some white phalenopis.

and another one just starting to bloom now.
