Hi Jane 
Welcome to Orchidboard 
Your slipper orchid is a beauty! What other orchids are you growing? Have you been addicted for very long or has the bug just bitten you recently? 
If you have any questions, feel free to ask |

Welcome to the OB Jane! Your slipper orchid is stunning! I can't wait to see more of your pictures. Did you take a picture with a mirror in the background? If so, I like the idea!

Welcome to the Orchid Board from another Kiwi, I am a recent member to the O.B. The members of this board know their stuff, they are ordinary folk all with the same ailment (Orchiditis)?
They have all sorts of remedys for this, which they share with all but the adiction is almost impossible to get rid of,so we just get another orchid to help us through the longing. Have a long and enjoyable association with these wonderful people from all over the world.Welcome from New Plymouth.
So much to learn so little time.
