Looks so wonderful filling up with plants although it looks like you're going to need a second storey for that Vanda soon.

That is such a wonderful orchid house, Connie. You did very well!!! Hope your flu goes away soon and you can enjoy your new addition.

cheers,

Look wonderful, Connie and your orchids look happy. Some day when I move to FL, I will get one of those.

Hi Connie - don't know how I missed this thread since I knew you had "given" yourself a greenhouse for your birthday. I loved watching the stages of production and as of the last photos, I am so charmed by the simplicity and serenity that emanates from it, it's given me very bad "I-wants". Part of me wants to visit and see it in person and the other part of me knows that would be a very seductive, and dangerous, idea. It's beautiful and I hope you have many, many moments of quiet joy in your work and leisure time there.

I go out there and when I come in my husband will say..."have you been out there all this time?". lol I make sure to shut things down (puter, tv, etc) and take the camera as it's very difficult to leave once I get in there. I bribe myself, if I dust first I can go out into the greenhouse...or if I do a couple loads of laundry...and it works great! I am so caught up i'm already working on Christmas this year!

Spend more time in the greenhouse and get your Christmas shopping done sooner? Sounds like winning logic to me!

I have been spending a great deal of time in the greenhouse. It's been quite the job getting the plants arranged and re-arranged. I've changed a few things, including my fertilizer and wow what a huge change. The last few months i've begun misting my mounted plants, vanda and some of the basket plants. The change in their growth has been amazing. I can't wait to post a few of the really cool plants...like a bulbo I bought quite awhile back. It seems some of my plants are doing much better in the greenhouse. I am just about a hermit...if it weren't for the need for food and water i'd live out there! lol

The first two pictures were taken a couple days ago...





These pictures were taken this afternoon after i'd added another shelf, to get a few more plants off the ground in the misting area.
