Hello from VT.

Hi There,
Just saying hello for now from the chilly Green Mtns. I have many interesting plants, but only one orchid (so far). I've had it for 5 years. Actually bought it at Home Depot. It's a hybrid Paphiopedilum of some sort. It's a really cool plant with spotted leeves and a velvety purple spike that opens into a ladyslipper type of flower. Dark purple, almost black. There are two new spikes growing now. It's about time for a new orchid, so I'm sure I'll have a few questions. Thanks in advance for all the knowledge.
