Hello from Missouri

[Zoi2]

I have had orchids for several years, not so much as a hobby, but for the beautiful fresh color of the blooms in our dreary winter/early spring. My "collection" has now grown to 10 - I think possibly I do have a hobby (or adiction) LOL. Last spring I purchased an orchid seedling on ebay (offered as near blooming size) and had no clue as to care. Thankfully I stumbled upon the Orchid Board and the little guy is doing fantastic. I am ashamed to admit I have been a "lurker" for almost a year, but I have enjoyed the board with the extensive culture information and wonderful pictures. I am even experimenting with semi-hydrophonics thanks to First Rays!

Hi and welcome to the Orchid Board! Glad you came out of hiding! So what is the name of the orchid you bought off of ebay?

Thanks Becca.
The tag says L.C. White Spark "Panda". I'm hoping it's correct, but it'll probably be a couple of years before I know.
