Happy to be on board

[marylandmike]

I'm back into orchids since I moved to Maryland 22 years years ago. The Orchid Board looks like a great place to learn and share orchid information.

[jkofferdahl]

Glad you're here. What are you growing?

[marylandmike]

I have Blc. Conerstone "Hawaii"X....Epc. Middleburg 'Maj'...Miltassia Dark Star,...Blc Pamela Finney "Victory"...Dendrobium Genting Royal ...Vanda Pure Wax 'Carmela'...Blc Maris Glory 'H&R'....Blc Fringe Benefits "Rochelle" X.... chysis bractescens deities that just bloomed today, Dendrobium (proud appeal x green mist)...Grammatophyllum elegans

I'm trying semi hydroponic on 60% and so far so good

[Dollythehun]

Wow, what a variety! Welcome!

[marylandmike]

Last spring I had Phellps Orchids send me a variety of 6 bare root "their choice". I did the same thing this year with Carmela Orchids Hawaii. (bigger sized)

[Dollythehun]

Smart thinking, if they meet your conditions.

[Pattywack]

Welcome to the board, that is quite the variety! Do you grow indoors?

[marylandmike]

Yes...but I'll hang some from my birch tree, during the day in summer. Because of the orchids from Hawaii, I need to expand my enclosure. I've ordered a 48"x 86"x 24" along with a zipper front vinyl cover.
