I guess let's just put it out there. I'm from sunny South Africa and I've been growing orchids for 2 years now. I'm a long time lurker, but now the babies in my collection have persuaded me to join so I can ask about more specialised care, and hopefully share what I've learned so far.
My collection includes some 75 orchids, hopefully that's just the start of it!
Oh, and I've graduated from windowsill culture to greenhouse culture some time ago.
