Thank you all! I've been browsing the forum and there's so much knowledge and information here it's almost overwhelming. I must admit that not only do I have a thing for Phal equestris but I've also started eying Paphiopedilum... I believe that this genera will be the next one I'll start collecting (in a couple of years or so).
Phal equestris are cute, lots of little flowers with nice scent.
Paphiopedilums are also great, since I've been living in an apartment with not much sun. I'm moving to a super bright place soon and I'm not sure how I will handle the light with my paphiopedilums, but I'm excited as I am thinking of collecting high light orchids along with some regular flowering houseplants. yay!!!!!
Hi and welcome
I am sure you will find this forum helpful in all aspect of orchid growing! And I hope you will develope your collection with time, though I doubt it will take severel years ;-) by experience and empirical data looking at other forum members "collection grow speed"...
I am excited for you NYCorchidman...I hope you have wider windows and brighter skylines on your next apartment...as for me, I cant move anywhere. I have a 1930's bauhaus rent controlled/stabilized deal. I am stuck with it...
You are right Magnus, when I joined the forum and saw pictures of the other members orchids...my collection doubled in six months
