New to Orchid Board
Hi from Maryland, USA. New here, been doing orchid culture for 4+ years. Inside under lights and just started to try some outside. 145 total collection keeps me busy ! Dens 51, Phals 27, Catts 25, and others 40. Most of my collection is in 4" or 4.5" pots, so are small to medium 'chids ! Very few bigger, at least until my Cycs are ready to bloom !! Still struggling to learn more !! Also trying to get my collection down to a more manageable size !
Loving every minute !!
Merlyn

Hi Merlyn and to OB. If you hope to get help "downsizing" your collection from folks on OB, dream on. We are in the business of ENABLING each other. Ours is like the stock exchange...Everyday we yell " BUY, BUY...LOLOLOLOLOL

Merlyn and to the OB !!! I hope that you will enjoy it here and share with us your tricks and bad experiences as well. DOWNSIZING is not in our dictionary !!! I've only been into this gorgeous hobby for 6 months and my collection is up to 105 and counting..
P.S. I have a lot of room for orchids
