Hello from sunny Malaysia - Orchid Board

Hello everyone......

I found this board by accident and I really thought you have a very lovely board.

You may call me Hami and I am from Shah Alam in Malaysia. The weather here may be quite different from where most of you are, though I did notice a lone newcommer from The Phillippines. I am retired now and think that I'd have a bit more time with the orchids which I have always had but with little time spent in the past. Currently I have about 150 pots in my collection ....not counting "twin sharing" in some cases.

Am looking forward to sharing information with all of you.

Hi Hami,

Welcome to the community! I found the people on this site are very friendly and helpful. I hope you will too.

Welcome Hami. There are many other members from your part of the globe. This board is heavy to North American members, but there are many others from as far as Ukraine and Europe over to Australia. The only measure on this board is a person's love of orchids and desire for information or to share experiences and information. People here really love to see pictures, so start your gallery and please share your corner of the globe with us. It's very cold here where I live, so I hope you can share pictures of warm conditions, palm trees, jungle, orchids, etc. Once again, welcome to the Orchid Board.

Welcome to the Board! I hope you become familiar with us all, and start posting away. Sounds like you have a very nice collection, and we would love to hear more about them.

Gee...I am having some friends already!

Yes, I have succeeded in creating my album here though my first couple of postings were done before that. I shall try to merge them in due course.

I stumbled here while trying to find the names of some varieties I have. Most outlets here do not tag their plants ....

Looking forward to hearing from all of you....and Merry X'mas. Oops hope it is not too, too late.
