Comment on I really begin to love the natural look of phals if you just let them be [Orchids]

We did pick it up from a fancier florist, so it wasn’t a $10 supermarket special. That probably doesn’t change your point, though, god knows what its parentage is.

We give it the sunniest spot in the house already (south-facing window, with morning light up til about 1pm because winter), and it’s filtered through a double-pane insulated window, and it’s winter during the doldrums of the year, so it’s probably the lowest light it’ll get through the year.

The temperature thing is a good point. Maybe I just crack the window a bit so it gets some cold? It drops to about 5C right now.

I’ll get some pictures if I think about it when I’m home later. =p It has been throwing off a bunch of roots and the leaves are pretty healthy-looking.
