Default grow camellia, gardenia and azalea/rhododendron indoor

Thank you all for your replies!

I'll move my camellia to the balcony and hopefully it will be happy
about it. Here is my new gardening plan for the year. I'll buy a 1G
gardenia and 1G azalea. I found them in wal-mart nursery. They are in
6" long pots so I'll have to transfer them to 8" pots for the first
2-3 years. For indoor, I'll buy anthurium, begonias and orchid for
colors. How does this sound? I heard it is difficult to grow orchid.
What species are good for a beginner? Moth orchid? cyum....?

What are good nursery stores? I checked online and went to a
"Summerwinds" near me. Their plants and pots are more expensive than
HD&walmart. Is it true that HD&walmart are always cheaper? I found
some labels on the plants are the same as those on HD plants. So if
they are from the same source, maybe I can just go with the cheaper
store ones?

Also, I posted a question about self-watering container. It would be
great if you can share your experience with it.

Thanks again! I really appreciate all your time and help!
