Hanford, I tried to grow orchids after someone gave me one but for me it's one of the few things I had trouble growing with success. The one I received as a gift was called dancing dolls. When it flowered, lo and behold, it looked just like dancing dolls by golly. Unbelievably beautiful. There isn't too many flowers that can beat orchids.
Just over the Altamont pass you'll come down into Livermore on the 580 and there is about 3 or 4 greenhouses all lined up in a row that specialize in growing orchids. If you're ever up this way it's worth a look.
