Hi...this is my first post. I was recommended to use this board by my brother who generously sent me my first orchid ever from his collection in central Florida! VERY exciting. I am looking forward to learning from all of you! I especially need to hear of any tips for keeping a phalo in the Midwest, specifically Iowa.
Welcome to the Orchid Board:
Phalae's will grow well in Iowa, as long as they are inside! There is a LOT of info on phalae's here, just ask the right questions; or, go to the Phalaenopsis area and check the previous posts.
The folks here are great and very friendly and you will find a lot of support here. Welcome to the Orchid community and may you have as much pleasure with them as I have!
Merry Christmas,
Steve
