Hello all, from Sarasota Fl :)
Hi everyone, I'm Trisha and about a year ago I became obsessed with mounting and arranging orchids to a cluster palm in my front yard. Cattleyas on the sunny side and phals on the other. I buy them as I find them on sale and then add them to my tree. I have 15 mounted so far, 6 of which are in bud, and a few more sitting on the shelves of a small greenhouse on my patio.
I am very interested in summer blooming Phals and am hoping to add a few to my collection this summer. I just need to be careful, as I fear this is going to become a serious addiction for me! Lol

 Glad you could join us. You won't get any arguments from us. We're all addicts here, just can't say no to "one more orchid" |

Thank you for the Welcome! I've been reading and taking in so much information since I joined. I can't get enough. No I haven't, but I would really like to. When is the next meeting?

The next meeting is on the fourth (first Monday of every month) at 6:15 pm at the Selby gardens. You can bring a plant if you're having trouble with it too |

Great to know, thank you. As soon as my work schedule changes from Monday nights I'll be there.

Thanks I'll look into the Oncidiums!
6 of my mounted orchids are about to bloom, and as soon as a few of them open, I will absolutely post pictures! :-) |
