John and Terry, that's Rossioglossum Radown Jester. You can see closer pictures of it in this thread. http://www.orchidboard.com/community...wn-jester.html

Hello all

I'm from Stafford Springs, Connecticut. I've noticed that we have directions to Detroit and Maine on here so I couldn't resist.

Get on 84 East - stay on 84 East through all the big towns. Once you start seeing nothing, wait a little while longer. Take exit 70 and turn left onto RT 32. It's OK if you find yourself in the woods with nothing around you. You're doing great!

Now travel over the river and through the woods...you're almost there. Make sure to avoid the cow that likes to stand in the road before the rotary. Watch out for the pot holes on Main Street, they like to move when no one is watching. Congratulations..you've made it to Stafford .

So that's my little neck of the world.

Madison, Wisconsin on the cusp between zones 4-5, still way too cold...I have 20 orchids scattered around my living room, some thriving, others just surviving...

We need to get that corrected, don't we? Just ask away and we'll see what going on that you can correct. Maybe we (the Board) can get you going in the right direction?

Sounds pretty good, though. I didn't read that any were dying. Whatcha got for orchids?
Welcome Nick!

I guess I call my survivors those that haven't rebloomed yet. I don't have a fancy setup, but I keep on tweaking things when I see a good idea on a forum, for example RO watering--well, I don't have a system, but I have a Britta pitcher, so I started using that instead of the tap (well/softened)water. I also finally found a hygrometer, so soon I will know just how dry I growing area is...
I don't have anything fancy--half are phal hybrids, 3 onc, 2 catt, 1 phrag, 1 paph,1 vanda, 1 tolumnia. 1 zygo
I've rebloomed the phals and phrag, the others mostly have been living with me less than a year

Texas! Yeeee Haaawww! (bang, bang, bang) <-- my six-shooters.

I'm originally from VA, but I love it here.

I'm in east TX (Nacogdoches) about 90 miles from the LA border, due west of where the LA/TX border goes from a strait line to a squiggly one.
