Hi from San Diego

[Dimples]

Hey all,
Long time lurker, new member, posting from the northern end of San Diego County.

I'm not new to plants (organic farmer by trade & 40+ houseplants) but I am new to keeping orchids. My small collection of phals is expanding faster, and slower, than I'd like.

I work down the street from SVO (wow!) and managed to leave with just the bag of Kiwi Bark I intended to pick up. Been meaning to take a trip to Andy's but I know myself well enough to stay away for the time being.

Hi, hello, hey!

Welcome. SVO is great to deal with from afar. I envy you.

Hi dimples.

Welcome to the Orchid Board!

[Dimples]

Thank you all for the warm welcome!

TZ, I am very fortunate to be a plant person living in the most agriculturally diverse county in the country. A bit more rain in the winter is all I'd change!

Hi there from cross country. Hope you received some holiday $...living where you do with great orchid money pits nearby is tempting! Stay well in 2022.

Welcome "neighbor"... You have a great location. Yes, Andy's Orchids is the ultimate candy store...
