What about potatoes, yakons, ocas, cucumbers, all sorts of roots, pumpkins and squashes, strawberries, all sorts of berries and currants? In the winter I do not eat orchids that are artificially multiplied to satisfy the beauty-vanity of some "gardeners" and flower shops that sell thousands of orchids in all seasons to put on your klitchen window ledge. Dalhias are 100% or even maybe 300% better for your garden and for your beauty-vanity. Orchids are a commercial fad that makes millions for garden and flower shops.
