As the title says, I come from Croatia, from a small town Opatija, on the Adriatic coast.
I received my first orchid, as a gift, a white mini phal 5 years ago. It stood in the dark corner of the living room never reblooming again, just growing new leaves.
Then 2 years ago I got gifted another white phal, but this time with big giant flowers. Again it wouldn't rebloom but it produced a nice keiki.
Anyways, that was a start and I fell in love with orchids. Lots of reading, watching videos about orchids and 2 years later I now have around 20 beautiful orchids. Mostly Phalaenopsis types (round 50%) but also a few dendrobium nobiles and phalaenopsis types, oncidiums, miltoniopsis, and a zygopetalum.
In the end, I managed to get both original phals blooming again including the keiki.
So after years of lurking and reading posts, I finally decided to join the Orchid Board family.
Hope to share some experiences with the rest of you, both the good and the bad ones
