Hello from Virginia
Just thought I'd check out some orchid forums and this one looks good. I'm somewhat new to it. I bought my first, sad looking, on sale orchid at the grocery store a couple years ago and killed it because I knew nothing about it. Then a little over a year ago I bought another one and it bloomed for 6 months and has been slowly churning for what I hope will be a beautiful display. In the mean time I picked up two more, one of which I can't identify and will take a look in the appropriate part of the forum for that.
Just want to learn more. I love doing this since I've learned a bit more here and there.

Hi Matthias!
we'd love to see pix! I'm glad your plant is doing so well!
Be warned - this board is full of Orchid obsession enablers - you'll soon have a house full of orchids!  |

Hi Matthias! Welcome to the Orchid Board, so glad you could join us. I do agree with WhiteRabbit, this forum makes you want to buy more orchids every day. Anyways, hope you find your answers.

This is a hobby that can very quickly turn into an addiction.  If you reach that point, don't worry...we're all in the same boat!
