Oh, you should!! They’re gorgeous. We have pink and white ones. They don’t scent, but make a nice display! Everybody, plant some flowers!
April 2, 2008 at 7:39 pm #686308to be honest nam you don’t need a lot of time or money,i have these guy’s set up so lighting is on a timer,i only have to change the timer for the four season’s,i water with fertalizer once a week accept for the few that need to stay moist so they get twice a week,during the winter no fertalizer and a few don’t even get watered for 6-weeks,as for cost you can even go to home depot and get a phaleanopsis in full bloom in a 6-inch pot for $14.99 to $24.99,way cheeper then collecting windstone’s 😆

I was going to tell her the same thing. 😀 good job. We have it easier tho because we live in Florida and have a greenhouse. Winter time we have to put heaters in there and the small ones come in the house. But most of the time it’s simple and inexpensive. Some are just air plants basicly and just need to be misted daily. Can’t think of the name right off hand tho.
