Newbie from Denver

Heyya all, I'm so glad I found this site. After admiring orchids forever and sadly killing a couple of them, I'm jumping in again. With new found love and a great desire to built an orchid tree (saw Lorraine's thread from last year....GORGEOUS!) I'm hoping to learn tons and hopefully get some of y'alls successful-orchid-growing-mojo.

Laurie and welcome to OB. I killed my fair share when I first got started. . OB is a fun place to be. You'll get lots of help here

Laurie, and welcome to the Orchid Board!
We sure are glad you found us. You're going to learn a lot and fun doing it!
Lorraine's orchid tree is fantastic, a lot of us have admired it. I'm sure you will find a way to make one too.

So, ask away, someone will jump in and help.
Oh, Dorothy is one of the moderator's here and her MOJO is fantastic! She also loves 'nubbins' and you can't go wrong with a girl like that!

Thanks for the love, everyone I made a trip to Fantasy Orchids in Louisville today, added two more, it's late, I'm tired so their names are escaping me. The husband is working on a big terrarium and I hope to have pics soon.

Hello & Welcome!

We're practically neighbors! I live up in Bailey but work down in Denver.

I buy most of my orchids online but in town, I get most of mine from Fantasy Orchids or Paulino Gardens! They have a pretty good selecton but to find the really special ones, you'll need to try Andy's Orchids & Oak Hill Gardens. You might not think so but orchids can be shipped with great success.

Cool about the big terrarium in the works! And just so you know, we're going to need photos.

AND we're going to need to know what you picked up at Fantasy Orchids, pictures would be nice here too. roflolol

Good Luck! And just ask if you have any questions. This place rocks with friendly, professional advice!
