[Orchonubee]

Hello, I'm a new member living in E Cen Fl. I have been growing orchids for only a few years and now have about 60, mostly Dendrobium, Vandaceous, and Cattleya orchids, obtained at shows or from internet sites. I'm retired, and find this hobby so enjoyable. I recognize I'm hooked for ever! My brother built a small 8X8 greenhouse which house about half my collection, the other half are hanging under oak trees. Most all come in when the temps get cold. So far we are having a very mild winter. I have bought several orchid books, and what I've learned so far is I have a lot to learn! I have joined hoping to learn from the experienced grower.
