Welcome to Orchid Board

You have some nice looking mounts there and the Oncidium in that first picture looks really happy.

Welcome to OB

Your mounts are absolutely fantastic. Do you have other orchids? Be careful- they're addictive.

Welcome to the OB. I hope to give divisions to my kids when they are grown and have places of their own. And what beautiful mounts! I love how artfully assembled they are - nice work.

RJ - if you'll adopt me, I'll gladly be a benefactor - your slippers are amazing!
