    Text and photos: Ave Kruusel Orchid is a houseplant that is gaining more and more popularity.  There probably isn’t a home left where there is no orchid on a window shell.

You can choose between different producers and models. I decided on Nikon EDG Fieldscope 85-A and EDG 16-48x/20x-60x Zoom .
