Species and Miscl. Other Orchids

Some people only grow species, but everyone has a few because they are just too irresistible.  If you are just starting in orchids, it is best to consult an experienced grower to learn which species will give you trouble.  It is not a good idea to go for great variety in species as their growing condition vary more widely than an average grower can accommodate.  The ones that I offer are well adjusted survivors to Virginia conditions.

In this group, I also have hardy Chinese ground orchids that do well in Virginia outdoors all year.
