Hi all

[Greenman]

Hi all, I'm new to the florum, but have been growing orchids for half my life (since I was 15) I live in the Miami area and am interested in Bulbophyllums, and the Stanhopa family especially but have a wide array of plants (300+) from many different genera.

Currently, I belong to 6 or 7 orchid clubs, edit the newsletters for two of them, am the librarian for one and sit on the board of three.

Cant wait to discuss ideas and growing tips with the other forum members.

Greenman.

Hi Greenman...nice to have you with us
I can't imagine doing all you listed for numerous clubs...I have a hard enough time sitting on the board of just one!

We'd love to hear more about what you're growing...do you grow outdoors?

We're usually in chat around 8pm each night...stop in and say hello sometime. Have you checked out our gallery? You'll find some amazing pictures of orchids grown by our members worldwide...quite a display!

I think I'm going to have to look into some Stanhopea!
I keep seeing them listed in new threads and don't have one...yet

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask

By the way, have you seen this? http://www.orchidboard.com/community...s-read-up.html
It's a great tool for any club! Know of any?

Hi cb,

Yes, I do grow outside on three orchid benches,a mango, and just about anywhere else I have space.(LOL)

I'll be placing photos in the gallery as soon as I get a chance.

I'll be placing the information for Orchidboard in the newsletters of two clubs. (And I know of four more I'll send it to.

Thanks for the welcome.
