I rescued on from my sister a few years ago when she moved (she was going to throw it out) and this spring it finally grew a flower spike. Unfortunately the spike died before it bloomed. <br /><br />I do agree that the orchids are very pretty and fragrant, as I have seen them on display in a conservatory. Perhaps one of these years I will attempt to grow them. I have not given up on the one I have yet; it still sits on a shelf next to a window.50 Something Yogahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04312939117003450033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8571416543397224604.post-50865455646442962422012-06-26T10:41:56.401-07:002012-06-26T10:41:56.401-07:00Hi Diane,

Secondly, ...First of all, how high is your balcony? Secondly, I would suggest a feeder so they know there is a food source there as they arrive before most plants can be put out. Once they know there is food, they will return. Columbines, nasturtiums, morning glory, scarlet runner beans (these are dual purpose) and honeysuckle are all good sources of food for the hummingbirds.
