Thanks @ all!
actually, my collection is basically Slippers and Catasetinae, with Venezuelan Cattleyas - and some Brazilian and Colombian as well - currently taking over (you know, people come to see my plants and comment, but you do not have real orchids, don't you? so, I acepted to get Venezuelan Cattleyas to cover that part
)
then there is a bunch of weird stuff that have found their way into my collection too (sometimes is difficult to say no to presents and/or some plants
)
as for the question of how long I grow orchids... since I am 14
but the european collection has actually started about 6 or 7 years ago...
