Health problems?
 
An excellent thread from 1995 rec.gardens on the subject of houseplants in
bedroom:

And here is something a bit more scientific, but still funny

Depends on if you have a spouse and if your spouse appreciates
orchids in the bedroom. It almost got me killed once... But other than
that, no. If you keep your humidity to the point where you get molds
and mildews on the wall (which you shouldn't have to do with paphs),
then you might have some problems.

Rob's Rules: http://www.msu.edu/~halgren
1) There is always room for one more orchid
2) There is always room for two more orchids
2a. See rule 1
3) When one has insufficient credit to purchase
more orchids, obtain more credit
