Default Growing Orchids in Seattle

Google is actually my best friend. However, I thought this might be a good
place to come for some opinions. My daughter just moved to Seattle
recently, and I was wondering if, given their climate, an orchid would be a
plant I could recommend. I think I have my answer now. Thank you.

There are several orchid societies in the greater Seattle area. Mount
Baker Orchid Society, Northwest Orchid Society, Tacoma Orchid Society,
Federal Way Orchid Society, Olympia Orchid Society, Puget Sound Orchid
Study Group, and even a society on the Olympic Peninsula in the Sequim
area. Google is your friend.

I'm hoping someone in this knowledgeable group can give me some
information. How difficult is it to keep orchids in Seattle? I'm not
talking about a greenhouse, but just in a normal home situation. What
orchids do well in Seattle's climate? Do they require special care?
