Default Greetings from Costa Rica
I just registered here and seen somewhere that I need to post 5 times before I can post pictures so here's my first.

Most of my orchids are rescues off the forest floor when a storm knocks them down or off of orange trees in a nearby grove.
Hurricane Otto did a lot of damage to the forests around here a few months ago and i've rescued a lot of orchids from fallen trees. So once they start blooming I expect I'll be asking for help ID'ing them here.
If anyone is interested, here are some pictures of mine of orchids, my own and at the Lancaster Gardens.

Welcome to the Orchid Board!

How wonderful that you are in a place to just walk the woods after a storm and bring home orchids! Your photos are a real delight.

Remarkable! So many orchids that so many of us have never seen, and that will never be available for collection where I live. I don't think we will ever tire of looking at your collection!

Thanks Optimist, though many of those orchids in the album I linked to were taken at the Lankester Gardens near Cartago. They have an amazing collection of orchids, thousands of specimens it seems.
