Hello from Canada

[andrew__]

New to orchids (well, there's always been some in the house but they've never been under my care). Got to orchids from my interest in vivs (particularly poison dart frogs) and so I'm most interested in small species suitable for this sort of environment.

Hi Andrew, Welcome, Welcome!!!

I too have a vivarium so I was (and sometimes still do) search for orchids that do well in that environment. Here's a link to a thread that was very helpful to me. Keep us posted and don't forget to share some photos!

Hopefully soon I'll have some orchids worth taking a picture of

Here's a Phal. my dad's got though - will have to wait until spring probably for my Paph. to repeat though for a shot I guess...

Hi Andrew,

Welcome to teh OB, and thanks for sharing the photo of that beautiful phalaenopsis.

Have fun in the forums.

I look forward to getting to know you better, and seeing more photos of your vivs and dart frogs.
