Here are my long promised, often delayed, hopefully entertaining growing area pics.
The outside of the greenhouse. This measures 5' long x 5' wide x 6' 5" tall, and sits in our home office. I carry plants to the kitchen to water.
The greenhouse has a double zipper door that can be opened/closed from the inside to keep in the humidity. Inside I have three fans running almost 24/7 and an evaporative humidifier (barely visible behind the fan). The utility shelves are from Lowe's.
On the middle shelf are my Japanese orchids: Gastrochilus, Neofinetia, Sedirea etc. These are flanked by my recent obsession, Oncidium intergenerics. On the bottom shelf I have the humidifier and asst. plants.
To the left are Phragmipedium besseae species plants and Phrag primary hybrids on the top shelf. On the shelf below are Phalaenopsis hybrids.
A top down shot of the besseae species and primary hybrids.
The Phalaenopsis hybrid section. That's Mini Mark front and center getting ready to bloom. In the background, you can see my wife's legs clad in her sexy pink pajamas.
To the right are Phragmipedium besseae influenced hybrids on the top shelf. On the shelf below are Phalaenopsis species.
A top down shot of the Phrag hybrids.
Phalaenopsis species including bellina, equestris and violacea. There are also a couple of Doritis down here.
So there you go. I hope you enjoyed the tour, if you have any questions just ask. I am working on collecting some culture sheets for these plants so I can fine tune parts of the greenhouse to specific culture needs (adding lights, watering schedules etc.) Look for my seperate thread featuring photos of my Oncidium intergenerics.
