Hello from Florida's Heartland Male
Default Hello from Florida's Heartland

I've grown an orchid or two for the past 20 years but I've only gotten kinda serious in the past 7 years.

I presently have 18 different kinds/colors with my oldest a Dendro and my newest a Spath.

While I've had some success with most of my orchids I want to learn if I'm doing the best to meet the needs of all the different ones I have.

I presently live pretty much in the center of Florida, eastern Polk county. They call this area the Heartland.
Recently moved here from Saint Petersburg, FL., over on the Gulf Coast side, or as we call it, "The Other West Coast."

Hey Chuck if you've been growing orchids for 20 years I think you can also tell us a thing or two also. As you have to be doing something right to not have them die on you in 20 years. Welcome to the orchid board.
