Greetings from the PNW!

[TheEarthGarden]

Hi all!

Joining the board from Portland, OR.

Since space is tight, I'm focusing mainly on temperate and miniature orchids (as well as carnivorous plants)!

My background is more with cacti/succulents and food crops, so this is a new area for me, but real excited to be learning more.

Cheers!

Glad you could join us. What orchids do you currently grow? Sit back, read a few of our members' posts. You'll find space, not to worry

That's cool. I actually flip back and forth between this forum and a carnivorous plant forum. What all are you growing?

Welcome! Looks like you have quite a collection going already. This is an awesome forum for information and sharing in each other's pure joy of growing and blooming orchids. I hope you will post pictures of your plants, we do like the pictures!

Welcome! There is a Totally Off Topic forum where people post photos of their other plants, and we drool over those, too.

Hey welcome from another Portlander. The Oregon Orchid Society meeting is next Tuesday and Portland Orchid Society the Tuesday after that. Open to non-members if you want to check it out.

Where did you get the Den. spectabile? I'd like to find one of those.
