Newbie from the UK with 23 UFO,s
A huge "hello" to everyone.
Honestly, three years ago I had no interest in orchids until my grandaughter suprised me with one as a gift, a Phaleanopsis.
I nursed it mainly from fear of a good telling off if it popped its clogs. Facinated by this (Unamed Flowering Object) I had to have another, so to date I have 23 Phaleanopsis all UFO,s. Lucky for me after reading some posts here, I have had no problems, well not yet anyway.
I'm really pleased to have joined this site and hope I can improve my skills even further, whilst maybe helping someone else out along the way.

Looks like your UFOs turned into YAPs Welcome to OrchidBoard.

Definitely YAPs, or as my grandson says OAPs "Oh Another Phaleanopsis"

OAP purchased yesterday to add to the magic cavalcade, so now 24. Will have to exercise some restraint, but I can’t seem to pass the “I am so lonely, nobody loves me isle” in the store without taking a quick peek. Maybe my next stop should be to search this thread for an orchid shrink!
Well, pip pip, cheerio for now.

Orchids rarely need a shrink; that's part of how I rationalize the expense for them. Orchid growers... that's a different issue all together.
Welcome to the board!
