Hello All,

Hi I am Zach, and I wanted to introduce myself to the forum. I am new to orchid growing and have always loved these unique plants.

I adopted an orchid, I think that it is a Phal., from work and has recently bloomed, with much anticipation and excitement. I have also experienced my first repotting and that was a trip in itself.

I have loved raising the orchid thus far and it has been an adventure...oh yea...and I want more of them too...I think that I will have to go out and get another one or six...LOL...

Welcome Zach (seems strange to say that as my grandson is named Zach, spelled same way!) Hope to see you around the board.

Hi Zach...welcome to Orchidboard

I like your choice of getting one or six
Join the crowd...we've all been bitten BAD!

Take a look at our galleries and in our Orchids In Bloom forum...they'll give you some ideas of other types of orchids you might be interested in trying.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. We have lots of very friendly people who are willing to share their knowledge.

Welcome to the OB, Zach!

You are joing a great Forum, and there's plenty other Floridians here that can share their wisdom on growing 'chids!!!!
Sounds like you got the bug!
Many of us here have got it, and seems that it won't go away!!!!
If you have questions just ask!!!
Oh and we all love
