Default Official "Hello" from Oregon

Hello to all. Although I started a few threads before, this is my official introduction.

I have been growing primarily Paphs under HID lights for the last 10 years. HOWEVER, I stared growing/collecting Vandas after reading " Vanda in a vase" thread. Well, it was doing ok, but I did not really like it after all. Then, I pulled each one of them out of the vases and built a "Vanda" house with PVC pipes with shower curtains. It was only less than $50 project from Lowes.

12 of my Vandas are snuggled in this house and they all get 5 mins bath every day. I see so many good-looking Vandas in EBay and keep telling myself that this is not a good time to get plats shipped.

As for the pictures, well. When Santa brings a new camera, I will post them.

BTW, mollycart came from Molly ( my Wheaten Terrier ) and cart (my MINI cooper).

Thank you. Naoki

Welcome Naoki. I used to live in Grants Pass and K. Falls for years back in late 60s and early 70s. Glad to see you spoke up. Now as to pictures....

Welcome Naoki!

It's nice to meet you...and I look forward to seeing pics of your vanda house. It sounds like it will work well for you!

Have fun around the forums, and if you have any questions, don't be shy!
