Hey all!
I just thought I wanted to introduce myself - my name is Janni (pronounced "Yannee"), and I entered the wonderful world of orchids when I bought my first Phalaenopsis hybrid two months ago.
I'm 28 years old and live in a village on Southern Zealand (the same Island that Copenhagen is on - I live about two hours South of Copenhagen). I've wanted an orchid ever since I was a child, but I, like so many others, thought they were hard to care for and demanded a lot from its "parent". But when I spotted a beautiful Phal in the local nursery and read the tag that specified its care, I (like the Phal itself) was sold! Since then, I bought another Phal, rescued one from my mother (she wanted to throw it out after it finished blooming), and bought two more that I'm not sure about - they're either Phalaenopsis or Doritaenopsis. Since I bought them, the second Phal I bought has sprouted a basal Keiki, and the Blooms are still beautiful on most of them (save for the one my mother wanted to throw out - it's doing okay, but no blooms yet)!
I also ordered the following from the local nursery:
Dtps Tzu Chiang Sapphire
Dtps Anna Larati Soekardi
Bl. Morning Glory
Dendrobium Cretaceum x Anosmum
Zygopetalum Bärbel Höhn
Lc. Cariad's Mini Quinee "Angel Kiss"
Odontoglossum Trilobum x Odontocidium Tiger Glow
Blc. King of Taiwan
I'm picking up the Tzu Chiang Sapphire tomorrow, while the rest have just been ordered from another nursery and will take a few days to arrive - my house is going to look like a greenhouse! Can't wait!
I suppose this is enough for now - I'm looking forwards to getting to know you all better, and to learn from all of you!
Have a great day!
