I was a newbie, and spent a lot of hours looking and talking to many folks on this board. I bought a house and abandoned pretty much everything---

This winter however, I had pretty stable conditions at home and started collecting and growing again. I'm older and wiser, and have a bit more money...*LOL*

I like mostly fragrant orchids that can tolerate cooler/Maryland temps. I'm a fan of mottled leaves, like on Phap--- although they scare me...but I bought my first one this year at my local NOS auction/fundraiser!

I also like compact/mini/micro orchids.

Well, : again!

Thanks! I should update my gallery, I guess. Tastes change, and I'm really excited by all my little green children. :P

This year I want to learn everything---

Hello and welcome back! I also like the fragrant and the mini orchids. When I find a fragrant mini, I feel as though I've struck the jackpot!
