Default Paphs are Fun!! BUT....

The paphs I own, have really been fun growing them and watching them bloom . In fact they are too easy...don't slap me if your a paph killer,you using too much water!!! I havent gotten any really hard ones yet is what that amounts too
I want to explore some more orchids . I got over my love of all things orchids and started trying to concentrate on what does good for me. Learn from them.
I havent killed my last 5 phals . Even have my 1st home grown phal spike. Sphagnum is not the killer some make it out to be for the phals . Put my phals back in sphagnum and they love it. Again, you using too much water if your killing them.
Now I want to get into some Masdevallias/Draculas bec they also are doing well for me . I not killed the 3 I bought in august from J&L. Most everything else I got from them died though. Wasnt the plants,, they looked good when I got them. Just tiny and I learned TINY takes hard hits if they arent treated JUST right, more so than a large established plant. I used too much WATER~~
But anyway I just want to be more active in a positive way.Continue to show my thanks and support to all of you who have contributed to my love of orchids

AND I am still a total NOOB!!!! just know more about being an Orchid BOOB !!
