Hello OB. Glad I found you! Male
Default Hello OB. Glad I found you!

Hello all. Hank here from Mechanicsville Virginia.
I have been around 2 Phals for 5 or so years that my wife took care of. Bloomed only once in that time. She killed one.
About 18 months ago, I decided to try my hand at killing the other. Learned what I could and charged it.
It did not take long and I was bit by the bug. I now have about 25 plants and rearranged my life to accommodate them.
I look forward to picking your brain and just maybe I could add a little.

Welcome and Hello !

Sit back, relax and read posts of the senior members who can provide helpful information on how to grow orchids based on their experiences.
Maybe someday you too can impart wisdom based on your personal experiences on growing orchids.

Welcome Hank to OB. You better let your wife know there is no recovery from orchiditis. When you start referring to one of your plants that has a woman's name, friends may look at you kind of strangely Lots of information and good advice here. These members are the best!

PS I almost forgot to add that, Birthday, Anniversary, Mothers Day, Fathers Day, Watching a few for a Sick Friend Day, seems to allow some more orchids to come live at your house or "I saw it and thought of You!"

and You've come to the right place. There will be no judging when you post that you've bought "yet another orchid". Instead, you can expect replies like, " isn't it lovely, nice colour, I want one of those"
