This is wonderful info. I will definitely be looking into that for her.
Thank you so much.
I would think Google would be flattered to become the generic name for using
a search engine. )

Theresa Hill of Hillside?? Hillview?? Orchids grows some beyuoootiful
Miltoniopsis (pansy) orchids. Google it or go to the Orchid Mall
(http://www.orchidmall.com) to find her site/list. Maybe you can get your
daughter a nice welcome orchid. Most places ship.

BTW, did you see where Google is afraid of trademark infringement when
people say 'google it'? They think someone will use a competing search
engine when they 'Google'... rather like 'Xerox' when one wanted to copy
something or 'Scotchtape' something together.... or 'amazoning' a book
(in order to read the first few pages (if available) to see if it to one's
taste.)

Luckily language is a living thing and - as we learned from 'Jurassic
Park' - life will find a way...

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?
