,
Let me introduce myself my name is Amanda, I am 27 years old and I live in Winter Haven, FL (about a hour from Orlando). I have a modest collection of about 50 plants, most blooming size which I have collected over the last 3-4 years. The species I keep include phalaenopsis, dendrobiums, cattleyas, cymbidiums, oncidiums, and brassvolas (I only have 1 of those). My orchids have came from several different sources including Lowes, Home Depot, Wal-Mart, the Ridge Orchid Society Show, and the local flea market.
Some of my orchids have identification tags, the store-bought ones anyway (probably about 10). But, the rest either came without tags or the tags have been lost along the way. Anyway you can see some of my orchids on my deviantart site:

I keep my orchids on plastic shelves on a screened porch, water them when they need it, and fertilize them occasionaly. I would like to eventually have a greenhouse, but its kinda out of my budget for now. Looking forward to getting to know you all.
