Carl (Davis, CA) lost an orchid in a clear glass pot with no drainage, pebbles, and mulch near kitchen sink/window. Wants book recommendations and suitable types for his area.
Orchid roots need moisture but drown in standing water. No drainage holes = fatal.
Easier (indoor): Phalaenopsis, Dendrobium, Paphiopedilum
Moderate (in/out): Cymbidium, Potinara, Oncidium, Burrageara
Buy a book first, match type to your home's light/temperature. Artificial environments possible but light/temp are key.
