Break the Ice
Hello,
My name is Jerry and I live in southern California. I have grown orchids for over 25 years and from coast to coast. I grow a mixed collection or both hybrids and species in a small greenhouse(s). I am a senior citizen and a retired AOS Judge.

CB977,
Thanks for the welcome. You ask what types of orchids I am growing. I am afraid that I suffer from "one of" disease; you know one of these and one of those and so on. To make it short(er), most of my collection is composed of Cattleya alliance (hybrids and species), intergeneric Oncidiums, Phals and Phrags/Paphs. If you had ask what I had killed, I am afraid the response would have been much longer! I'm afraid that I am somewhat (like a lot) technologically challanged. I will post some pictures as soon as I learn how to get them into my messages/replies.
Jerry

CB977,
I am not sure if I'm doing this correctly to attach pictures, but here goes nothing.
