Hello I have been growing Orchids for a while now and although i am young i wouldn't consider myself a novice. If anybody has any advice or friendship to offer? Anything would be much appreciated that could aid or improve my collection.

Hi Miles

I love seeing younger friends joining the orchid obsession early

I'm going to move this thread into our Introductions - Break The Ice Forum...you're about to make a lot of new friends

If you need help with anything, let us know

What kinds of orchids are you growing? We'd love to see too

Hello Miles, welcome to the forum! I started growing when I was about your age and still learning 10 years later! What species do you grow and are you most interested in?

Well i have been growing orchids for over a year now. Cattleyas are my favorite with their large blooms and vibrant colours. I have a lot of seedlings which i have bought from shows. Here are some of my orchids.

Hi Miles, I've been growing orchids for less than a year, and I'm 60- I envy you your early start. But, better late than never!
