This is in Palm City, which it north of Palm Beach County in Martin County--but I really liked Pinders Nursery--it's been there forever.

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Re: Help keep my "black thumb" at bay

Thank you everyone! I didn't know that they don't like A/C, but that makes perfect sense! I had one right under an A/C vent last time and all the flowers quickly began to fall off. I went home and checked to see what kind of orchid it was but the little sign was gone...yes...I need the signs...anyway, it's light pink that turns to white...I should probably post a picture so that I can get the best advice. I will stay away from the tap water too...another thing I was doing wrong!

If you like unusual wine and you are in that area, I would also recommend stopping into Schnebly Redland's Winery. I believe they use the unwanted fruit from their neighbors and make the wine out of that--pretty cool.

I put them all in the ground (that's how I found out that I was allergic) in a "filtered light" to "low light" area.

I will find out what my orchids are and get back to you--it matters what kind? I currently have them inside.

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Help keep my "black thumb" at bay

Alas, my temporarily green thumb is threatening to change for the worse. I was recently gifted a number of tropical plants, bromeliads (which I have since learned I am allergic to--happen to anyone else?), praying plants (those plants where the leaves fold up in the dark), and some orchids. Any advice on how I keep these all alive? Especially the orchids. I am an infamous murderer of orchids.

Any help is greatly appreciated!
