Learn tips for successful high-rise orchid growing—including the essential dos and don’ts, the conditions orchids need to thrive, and the varieties best suited to life above ground level. With these insights, balcony growers can take full advantage of the benefits of container growing, such as better control over watering and the use of soil-less media like charcoal and bricks, which help keep the space clean and mess-free.
