Hello to everyone!
Hi, I'm new to the orchid board and I am new to orchid ownership. I only have 2 of them, but I live on a tropical island, so the possibilities are endless! I look forward to talking with you in the future! Have a nice day.

Nice to have you here. As belini mentioned it will be no time at all until someone enables you and your collection doubles before your eyes! Enjoy! Life is better with flowers! Care to let us in on what tropical isle you inhabit?
Cheers,
Tony

Welcome and Hello !
Sit back and relax, read postings of other members who can give you their wealth of knowledge from years of experience on growing orchids.
The tropical isles is very conducive to growing orchids.
You can hang them under the trees or mount them on trees...you can do a makesift wooden shelves to put the potted ones.
Just have space to bring them indoors just in case of tropical storms and heavy monsoon rains. Some orchids crown rot if exposed to incessant rains...
otherwise: Good Luck and Good Growing !

Welcome to OB!!
Tropical islands, I'm jealous! Where at? Lucky you to have a wonderful climate for orchids, sure beats having to figure out how to overwinter them indoors without them becoming too unhappy!
