MY husband so far isnt 'into' orchids but he is more than happy to give me a helping hand with them, he helped me mount my Den. loddigisii and put up my metal halide and bought it first of course, he is on the look out for a mini fridge for my masdie, He loves plants so he will do anything to help me get my conditions right. I hope one day he is happy orchid shopping with me! It is great news that your wife now also Loves them and wants to be involved as BD said the shopping will be great fun. and also if you have to go away again you know they are in very safe hands. good work and by the way your fish are as beautiful as your orchids!
