In Orchids Simplified, by Henry Jaworski (I find lots of good information at my local library), I found that my phalaenopsis orchid needs more light in order to bloom (I suspected that) and that it benefits from being in an eastern window. The added suggestion that it needs a cool spot this time of year in order to begin blooming can be happily accommodated by moving it to the morning window! It should also get a bit more air circulation there. I like it when things coordinate so easily! Hopefully the strong morning sun won’t overwhelm it since the bottom half of the window is covered with fine black screening material (on the outside).
