I wish! I really get frustrated when i see something amazing but i just cant take a good picture of it.

Youre the first person to notice im 13. I was thinking people would think its alittle weird that i like orchids so much.

Thats what i like about orchidboard. Everyone fits in.

Well here is another picture but this one was taken a loooooooooooooooong time ago. Before I was even born I think. Anyways, it was here(where the picture is) where they placed all the flowering orchids to display them. This is right infront of my grandmothers house. If you look closely you can see My grandfather working in his office in the background.

Beautiful photo's! Looks like you had a fantastic time visiting your grandparents. Wouldn't it be lovely to live in a place where orchids grow all over the place like that
I especially love the photo of the Epidendrum nocturnum, what a beautiful flower!

By the way, looks like loving orchids runs in your family, do I'm not surprised you love them at 13 my grandmother also grew them, and so did my mom and dad so I always had my parents 'hiding' in the greenhouse It's great having such a hobby at an early age, so enjoy!

Sorry that your grandfather died, unfortunatly that's life It's a shame he can't teach you all he knew now, but at least you did inherit his love for orchids, which is good!

I will hopefully be able to post pictures of my Trip to Chiapas which is in the south of Mexico. There where soooooooooooooooooooooo many orchids there! Unfortunatly, I didnt take my camera there so I had to use my Cousins but he still hasnt sent me the pictures yet! They will be much better pictures and I took some of miniature-and I mean 2 cm-flowering orchids which I have no idea what they were. Maybe some of the expers will be able to help identify. But that will only be until I get the pictures.


Thank you all for youre replies! I hope you have enjoyed the pictures.
