Justin, I used to grow some cattleya, and they did fine. My greenhouse gets very hot in the summer, but I have shade cloth. It still reaches about 105. degrees. Most of my orchids have come from Santa Barbara Orchid Estates, that's where I found the Dendrobium speciosum, selection, and their cymbidium choices drive me crazy! There are SO many!

How hot does your greenhouse get in the summer? The range of temperatures is the hard bit to find orchids for, rather than just the low end. I imagine that pleoines would do well for you if it doesn't get too hot. You should check Santa Barbara orchid estates. They have a great selection of orchids that can be grown outside in California.
