Hi from Hawaii. I've been growing for over 20 years, lurking here from time to time, and thought I'd try joining.
I grow mostly vandas, but have a few phals, cattleyas, and some terrestrials. I also have some vanilla just because I'm fascinated by a vine orchid.
I've learned a few things about growing orchids that I've picked up here and there, but I know I can still learn some more.
I'm blessed with a good climate for growing outside, but we have our share of bugs, too.
Aloha
