Hi all From Central CA
Smile Hi all From Central CA

Hi all, My name is andrew. I am from the Sacromento, Ca area.

I am 14 years old, starting my first year of highschool this fall.

I grow many plants, from golden poppies, to tomatoes. My main specialty is Carnivourus plants, mainly Sarracenia (North American Pitcher Plants). I have all the species, subsp., and most varities and forms, and a few hybrids.

I got my first orchid a few years ago, a stunning red/orange Cattalaya, along with a Phal. from My grocery store. They both perished as i did not have a proper enviroment for them, i kept them both horribly underwatered and kept in my dark room. The Sacromento Orchid society show was this weekend, and as i have gone every year, i went this year, with the intent to buy a Brassia. Only one vender had one, and i also got a very pretty milt. that has a flower scrape or new perdobulb just starting to grow from the base of the plant, i cant tell for sure yet. I cant wait to see you guys all around here, my current orchid growlist is:

Brs. Brachhiata 'rubicon'
Milt. Hajimeono 'okuka'
And a white Phal from Raleys.

Welcome to the board Andrew. This may come as a shock but you are not the first person to kill an orchid. Read though the various forums, and ask questions. I've learned so much myself in my short time here, and lots more to learn.

Welcome Andrew

Glad you found something at the Sacramento Show. They had a nice selection of plants to choose from.
