Deb, spathoglottis are orchids. But it's a terrestrial, or 'ground orchid' so it grows in soil, and is really pretty easy. No misting, no special fertilizer or other orchid fuss. Down here they act pretty much like any other perennial. You get them in a spot they like, and they just grow and bloom. It's amazing to hear you're scared of growing any plant! You could totally grow orchids in that tropical basement of yours.

Love that clump of zingers. (my daughter called them that when she was little and couldn't say zinnias).
