Thanks guys. I haven't been growing orchids for very long, just a year and a half, so I'm very much a beginner. But oh, the addiction...LOL. I've managed to collect about 55 so far, and there's no end in sight. The blooms you see were plants I purchased in bloom recently; can't claim to have grown them myself. The object will be to get them to rebloom of course....

I just recently started growing them under lights, so we'll see how they do, and yes many of them will be year 'round under lights. I initially started with two shelves in front of a south window. As my collection has expanded, I needed more space and since there wasn't any more available in front of the window, I've added lights. Or I should say my DH added them for me...
