Hi Orchid Board People!

I'm Laura from the Reno/Lake Tahoe area. A dear friend gave me my first orchid about 4 years ago, and I must say...growing them is a LOT OF FUN!! hehehehe!!

Have 3 NoID phals, a cattleya, and a mini-phal (all from orchid shows--not from big box stores). Not much of a garden, however they're growing and am amazed that they are!

My husband and I are retired and spend most of our time raising puppies for Guide Dogs for the Blind (San Rafael, CA).

Been lurking on the board for a few months. Spring is popping up here lately, and I couldn't think of a better time to join!

All is grace,
-Laura
