Hello, Blanco, and welcome to the board. I have a lot of fond memories of the two years that I lived in Puerto Rico when I was in the navy, not the least of which is because I generous elderly Puerto Rican lady gave me my first orchid when we were neighbors. I thought she just had a patio filled with overgrown weeds, but she thoughtfully corrected me and told me they were something I'd never heard of before called Vandas :-). Where do you live in Puerto Rico? I was stationed at a small naval base near Sabana Seca, just outside of San Juan. Again, welcome to the board, and hopefully you'll share some of your pictures once you get your camera.

Steve
