My orchids whispered to me that they might be far more comfortable in a
Florida home. Naturally I listened to them. It is important to listen
carefully to what your orchids have to say. So my wife and I (I didn't take
the orchids. Two's company; 200's a crowd.) went to look at what Florida had
to offer. She was looking for a swimming pool; I was looking for enough
land to put in a greenhouse. We both got lucky and now we are well on our
way to owning a house in North Port. I am enlisting the help of those who
know the area to recommend: 1) an orchid society and 2) what to look for in
a Florida greenhouse (I was thinking of an evaporative cooler since I saw
one operating at Selby Gardens, but how effective would it be in FL?).
Those of you that have greenhouses, what would you look for if you could
start over? Thanks in advance.
