Hi Female
Default Hi

Hello fellow orchid enthusiasts. I'm very happy to have found this wonderful web site. I have an ever growing collection of orchids and love to exchange tips, advice, share orchid pics & stories, etc. I do not have a good digital camera like most of you (from what I've seen so far) to take great pics with. My orchids always end up looking blurry no matter what light I use, where I take the pic, etc. I need a good camera! Hope to get one eventually. Anyway, glad to be here and I look forward to reading and responding to posts and to viewing your galleries. If I can ever take a decent shot of one of my orchids, I'll start a gallery too. Hope you all have a great day.

Welcome to the Orchid Board!! Even though we like sharing good pics, we do not discriminate between Pro pics and pics taken by bad cameras. You should post yours anyways. We are orchid enthusiasts and will see the beauty in every orchid, no matter how blurry it is.

Thanks for the welcomes! This place feels like being home ~ among people who actually understand the love of orchids.
To answer the question of what kind of 'chids I grow, Phals and dends mostly, but I have one vanda, an oncidium, and one paph. I didn't think I was going to like paphs too much, call me crazy, but of course after having this one - I Love them. And I wanted another. Imagine that. I ordered one that should be here soon. Oh that wait and arrival is such a glorious time.
I do lots of gardening, but orchids are my passion.
I see a very large greenhouse in my future. It might be when I'm old and gray though. However, that's fine with me!
