Hiya from Baltimore
Hello all,
Dropping in to introduce myself as I just joined the ol' fora here. I've been collecting orchids for several years now, and the obsession started with a nice little phal that I picked up from Whole Foods 5 years ago. That little guy is hanging around, along with his keiki, and a bunch of new friends I have accumulated over the years.
I've got ~10 phals, 1 paph, 2 catts, a psychopsis, a milt (more on that later), and an oncidium.
I won't claim that I've had much luck with growing orchids, but I haven't outright killed any either. Most of my plants haven't flowered since I acquired them, and they've all made attempts with new sheaths, bulbs, etc., but things just haven't been right for them. I'm hoping that the collective knowledge will break that rut for me!
Take care and look forward to discussing with all of you soon.
-Alex
