Hi Bob, Joann, Jonada and Daethen.
I uploaded some pics of my babies (and no Bob, you are not the only one to kiss them). Some of them are in bloom.

Thanks! I keep smacking myself on the fingers, so that I don't go out and get another plant. 
By the way, in pic 5 of the gallery (which is my first ever Phal who was brutally tortured by me), is that a Keiki on its base? |

If you only knew how many plants I have sent to plant heaven  , you would not be saying that.
Just call me 10 black thumbs and toes. That is, it was the case till I got the Tortured One as a house warming prezzie 1.5 years ago. Now, the black toes are green and the thumbs will hopefully be as forgiving as the Totured One and turn green too. |

hey, your only as good as the ones youve killed, you learn the most from them. BUT, if that is the way it is, i must be and expert! haha im sure many other people, myself included, have killed their share!
but thats okay, because you have to use the buddy system when buying orchids. DONT LET THEM GET LONELY

glad you found us! I'm sure we all have had our share of "tortured" plants! Looks like you are doing well with orchids over-all! |

Nice collection! Smacking yourself on the fingers is hopeless, Orchid Collection Disorder is uncurable. I need an orchid fix every few months, or else it gets to be too painful to resist!
I like your kitties in your avatar. Their markings make me think of Savannah cats.

Phew! Such a relief that others have killed, maimed and tortured their share of plants as well. Makes me feel less like a plant serial killer.
Camille~ They are Bengals and I have three. The two you see in the pic as well as a 1 and a bit year old sepia.
