Default Hello from Goa.

Hi everyone!
I'm Marilena. I live in Goa. Its in India, the West coast to be exact.

I love orchids, but am rather new to them. Was coaxed into buying one by an friend who owns a nursery, and got hooked! Didn't know they were addictive!

Bye for now.

Marilena

Marilena, welcome to OB. Lots of great people here, with lots of advice on growing orchids. You'll love it here. Hooked on orchids huh?? You don't know the half of it. Pretty soon you'll have bought close to 100 without even knowing it. that's how most of us started

Hello and welcome!

You sure are in with the right crowd!

Yes, 0 to 100. . .takes about a year, from what I can tell. roflolol

We'd love to see a picture of the orchid that got you hooked and hear why!

Thanks to all of you! I'm feeling nice and warm inside. And as predicted, I'm back on Orchidboard.
Will post a picture as soon as I figure out how to do it.

Hi Marinela, what a sneaky friend coaxing you into buying just one, knowing full well you'd get addicted.
Goa? hmmm now I have to go on google earth and see exactly where you live. Another addiction for me it seems.
