Hi,I am new to site,my name is DeAnne
Have been growing orchids for about 40 years, and my little greenhouse ( 9x 12) is stuffed. I understand this is a common experience. Still learning how to not kill them.
Things going pretty well this year. Lots of flowers.

Welcome to the Orchid Board. It humbles me when I hear of people who have been growing them for a long time still consider themselves students of orchid culture. Thanks for joining!!!

Dear Susanne B .
Thanks for the welcome. It is hoped that some small knowledge gained from the school of hard knocks and the kind instruction of others will be helpful. More likely I will find this to be a wonderful feast of information from others.
Pictures will come when my grandsons show me how.
DeAnne.

Hi DeAnne,
Welcome to OB. 40 years of growing orchids has a lot of us beat. We'll be knocking at you door.
Hope you like the forums and all the info here at OB. I've found so much info about so many different types of orchids to be very helpful in caring for mine. Even found pictures of "I must buy that one" when I find them available. You'll have to take some pictures for us of your greenhouse all filled up.
