The tree or the greenhouse?Tolumnia tree!
I'm envious! How is it doing against the heat?
Periodically, I spray the walls and floor where there is green starting with the bleach solution I use for cleaning my pots. So far, so good!

Wow, lots of great looking plants in there, and yet a lot of free space left!!!! Isn't that a large Ansellia near the Tolumnia tree, and have you ever posted pics of the blooms? Jean

I don't have an Ansellia. Phrags are on the bench next to the tree. Which photo are you looking at?
I meant the g/h. That's a lot of glass area to build up the heat in!!

Your right Jean that does look like ansellia, quite a bit taller than the ones I have!
Dot - rather than call it a small pedestal - the wire milk crate!
That's one heck of a GH! Now that we've hit mid 90's, how's the shady & ventilation doing?

It is a lot of glass. It's been really hot here the past couple days -- mid 90's. The highest the greenhouse has gotten is 94ºF. With all the air movement and ventillation, it really doesn't feel that bad, probably because the temp. doesn't stay there very long. I should post a photo of the environment: there are tall trees to the East, so the sun doesn't hit the glass until about noon. Then about 4, the tree on the West side starts to give shade to the greenhouse. In the winter, of course, the trees drop their leaves so when we have sun, it does good things for the plants.I meant the g/h. That's a lot of glass area to build up the heat in!!
Next to the heater? That's my Dendrobium spectabile. Huge plant!

OK -- here are a few.Hey Dot! Post a some new pic if you can
The first ones show the remay material I decided to shade with as a stop-gap solution until I can figure out how to attach some Aluminet to the outside.
Very make-shift:
Outside looking in:
You can see that landscaping around the GH hasn't been done yet:
All the clutter is from the guys who are now re-siding our home.
I watered today:
Looking down (into a puddle) and up at the same time:
Many minis hanging. I think everything has grown since my last posting here!
