Hello! I'm new around here and I don't know what to say >///<

Right now I'm just keeping a couple of Phalaenopsis, Brassavola and Encyclia. Hope I got the names alright!
I'd love to chat with others that have the same interest than I, is strange when I email my friends orchid pictures or ask them about an inorganic substrate water retention properties and they just stare at me wondering if I'm joking.
Feel free to add me to chat on skype, I'd share my name by PM!
I already got a lot of local singles wanting to add me (bots) :/

I will be around browsing how to properly care for this species and maybe grow more... Just maybe... But deep inside I know I will LOL
Thanks for reading!

Welcome...you've come to the right place! Any and all questions will be answered and no question is too silly or simple. You may even get too much feedback! If you can mention what your growing conditions are and maybe where in the country you live,folks can be more accurate with their responses.

Welcome to the board. You get that too from your friends?

None of my friends in person nor online are interested in orchids or any of my other interests. This place is the best for friendly help and lots of info already available for reading.

I'm sure glad to know I'm not the "only one" who seems to have tons of singles living down the street from me. Funny since I live in the country in small town Texas. I don't live "down the street" from much of anything. And at 60 I am not in any hurry to go find them.
