My friend started me on an orchid collection about a year ago. I now have 65 orchids.

While vacationing I bought 30 really nice orchids in Maui at local growers. I do not have a green house, but have adapted an enclosed porch room with humidifiers and heaters.

I have a lot of books and a pile of old Orchid Society Digests that are useful. It is confusing at times but fun to learn.

I will probably ask a lot of obvious questions, but hopefully not forever :-)

Welcome Marianne. Questions are almost as welcome as pics. When you get a chance, post lots of both. Above all, have fun!

Wow
65 in one year that would take some beating even by the hardened veterans in here! I think I have about 15 been collecting about 11 months now. Yep! My first was brought by my hubby for valentines day.

Your collection is growing a bit faster than mine... I'm just approaching the 60 mark And I've been at it for about a year and a half.

Welcome to the board. This place is stuffed with great people and information.

Marianne, you've come to the right place.
65 and growing, that's neat. Many of us do not have greenhouses but still manage to buy "just one more orchid" . Be sure to post when you are able to
