Hi from Brazil

Hi Everybody,

I am very new to growing/caring for orchids. It is something I always wanted to do, but never had the time, or right climate, until now.

I have around thirty orchids or so, most of which were given to me by owners of large properties where the orchids grow wild. 99% of the orchids were growing in trees. I also have three or four store bought orchids.

I've done enough research to care for my orchids. My biggest obstacle to tackle is identifying all of them. Over the next few days I am going to photograph all of them and post here. I hope that with the forum members' help, I can get this done.

I've been reading a lot of the posts here and it seems you are a group of fine people with a lot of knowledge. I look forward to becoming a contributing part of the community.

Thayne
