A great portion of my collection has come from friends passing their plants along to me for one reason or another. I am honored to be the recipient of their gifts.

My local orchid club has been a real source of pleasure for me...not only do I get to learn from some of the most impressive growers around but I have also met a number of people there that are now considered close friends  |
