Hello Everyone From a Very Green Rookie!
Hello to all!
My name is Barry and after all the research and all of the reading and questions I googled, I kept finding my way here to this forum with answers....Time to join! Orchids are new to me, I have been growing cactus from seed inside under grow lights for three years with success and after spotting some orchids at a local store with their beautiful flowers I started researching the larger flower varieties and their vast array and I was hooked!
I purchased nine plants several weeks ago and all appear to be doing well, mostly Cattleyas and a couple of Stanhopeas. All are supposed to be within one to two years of flowering. They came from nurseries in Hawaii, NJ, and Virginia. Really hoping to share and chat with you all! Sorry to wallow on...just wanted to say hello!
