Hi from Portugal

[Luis888]

Thak you all

Mali, you are sooo right Good thing I´m still a student and there are only two expo´s a year.

The plants I wanted long ago were the Angraecum sesquipedale, Phragmipedium besseae and a Dracula. I bought Dracula ophioceps because it is suposed to be moderatly easy to grow. Maybe one day I´ll go for the chimaera

My recent obcession are Masdevallias so I got the M. prodigiosa, regia and rima rima alba (OMG I still have not finished the "highland" setup and the last one is already spiking)

I also bought Phrag. hirtzii and Epidendrum embreei.

I really need help with some of these plants so I´ll sure post some pics.

Are you kiding me Tetouan!?
Some years ago I was about to quit this hobby when I found Ophrys speculum in one of my family´s terrains. That gave me a lot of motivation as I have never even seen such a plant in photos.
So, as you can see terrestrial orchids mean a lot to me
