Sure, but the orchids that grow in cool climates are not the ones people buy to grow in their houses.

Phalaenopsis, for example, never ever would be exposed to water that cold in their native environment. If you want to grow one for years, and have it stay healthy and bloom you will not use the ice cube method to water it.
