Your place sounds wonderful Peter, I would love to have a conservatory.
Would love to see some photos of yours.
Congrats on the 1st place! Got a pic?
Yes keeping it cool in the summer would be tough. What are your high temps
where you are?
Cheers
Wendy

Hi Wendy

Thanks for that. Over the past few weeks I have been treating 'her' to
Growmore Bloom so hope that will give a boost! Everything else in my
collection seems to flower quite freely ( I only have about 45 plants
scattered around the house - but did take a First in the Novice section at
my local Orchid Society Show for a lovely Dend 'Polar Storm'). Having a
West-facing conservatory where there is a mix of light values has helped
enormously and wondered about moving the plant there but was worried it
may become too hot in summer. Keep it in light shade etc etc.

Thanks for the photos.

Peter
