My wife is in love with that color orange. It is her favorite by far. I like it a lot but I don't believe it will be my favorite. I ordered a couple additional orchids so we'll see what they look like when they come. I don't think they will be in Bloom at this point. You're right about heat. I was having a conversation with the orchid grower who stated that I should be highly considering moving all my orchids outside for the summer, that they will flourish because of it. I just have to build a shade structure for them.
