Anything that she paints (many dozen now) are her favorites, Ursula. Since I have to grow my "mother" fiddle leaf ficus inside fall and winter, I am thinking about hanging some of my mounted orchids all over her. She won't mind (the fiddle leaf, not my wife). Rather than stacking all my large, extra, clay and ceramic pots on top of the potting/packing cabinet, I could put a dozen or so orchids in 5" pots. She says I can have that 20% space to do whatever I wish (within reason and with her acceptance of course). Time will tell.

One major unknown is whether I will need any shading or the other side of the coin, whether the treated glass blocks so much sun that I need supplemental lighting. Now that (supplemental lighting) would be a problem. I am quite sure my wife wouldn't stand for fluorescent lighting in (her) sunroom.
