If, as a beginner, you were to ask me to be your PERSONAL ORCHID SHOPPER, the orchids types mentioned in this video is what I would highly recommend. There is a variety of other orchids, that are just as satisfying and rewarding to grow, apart from the complex Phalaenopsis hybrids. It can be intimidating to stand in front of an orchid display, see the beautiful blooms and really want to take some home, but there is the niggle of 'can I do this? They are so pretty, but I probably won't be able to grow them!' Well, I hope this video helps to dispel that hesitation. If I can, in anyway help, to encourage you to venture into the wonderful world of orchids, please do not hesitate to leave a comment below regarding any of your concerns. I am currently filming this series with videos that could help a novice, based on what I perceive would help to take that first step. Having grown orchids for many years, I have lost some of the first inhibitions, so would very much appreciate your input on where your hesitations focus, and then, hopefully, help to clarify them. Thank you for watching!
