My New Orchid House

[Ayreon]

Looks fantastic! Happy growing!

Not sure on the maker but I can find out, it is very commonly used in Australia, in fact I would say exclusively used here on orchid houses.

It's hard to imagine one without it.

The ones here in the US are usually green or silver. charleysgreenhouse.com sells them, among others. (http://www.charleysgreenhouse.com/index.cfm?page=_a1)

This shade cloth is available in many colours and many different shade ratings. I will have to find out who manufactures it here.

But seriously if you like in a climate where it doesn't get too cold it's perfect for growing orchids in. It breaks up the sun and the wind at different ratings and is really the perfect cover at the moment for growing outdoors.

Stay tuned!

looks great to me, very fonctional!!! Unfortunately, this would not offer enough protection for Luxembourg winters !!! Jean

No hurricanes, tornado's or cyclones here.

Yes they can grow outside all year round. Some warmer grower Paphs I bring inside the house during winter but the rest stay outside.

You lucky duck !! So what perils do you have for your orchids ? Brown snakes, funnel web spiders oke:? That is a beautiful shade house for you orchids !

No snakes or funnel webs in this area but we do get white tail spiders and red backs (black widows).

I haven't seen any for a while though. It should be problem free hopefully.
