Welcome to the board Jonny. I just recently got back into orchids after a forced hiatus, if you're like me your collection will regrow very quickly, and your credit cards will scream in pain.

Welcome to the board Jonny. Lots of info here and lots of nice people to make friends with. We all try to meet at around 8 eastern time US every night. Thats the best way to get to know some of us.

Thanks. Right know I have Catts, Epi's, Ecyclias(Ilenese), Dend's, Oncidiums, Miltassia, Vuylstekeara. I enjoy growing the more unusual or different Orchids so I am always on the look out for those. I'm trying to regain a new collection, I'm just getting back into the hobby.

Nice. I have a couple of members of my Orchid society group that cultivates slippers. I'm waiting to get a few from them, just waiting on our plant division, re-potting meeting for our Fall flowering Orchids.
