I'm from Dallas and it's hot and dry here in summer. The humidity is below 40% on dry day, possibly drier indoor... Any tip for me? lol Nice to see you all!

While i live in Tulsa, Ok, for the time being, Texas is home and we will be returning there to retire. My orchid mentor and dear friend is the orchid curator at the Corpus Christi Botanical Gardens. His name is Sam Jones.....and it is well worth the drive to Corpus Christi to visit with Sam....he is a wealth of information and always willing to share his knowledge with new orchid growers. Sam has forgotten more than most of us will ever know!
