Greetings from Northen Virginia

I just registered on this site yesterday. Great site and loads of information. I started collecting orchids last year while living in Germany. Unfortunately, when I moved they could not come with me. My collection stands at about 35 orchids. I never pay for orchids, but rather collect the unwanted and sick orchids, then nurse them back to health. I have Ascocentrums, Oncidiums, Cattleyas, Maxillaria Tenuiflora, dendrobiums, Phaphs, Phals, Brassovola Nodosa, and a Zygopetalum. My collection has been on my rear porch all summer and doing great. I have a miniature dendrobium in spike and probably will bloom within a week. I will post it for identification. I attached a photo of my collection.
