Newbie from NC
 

Hi from North Carolina, (or should I say hay y'all? )

I'm new to orchids and just found your site. You seem right up my alley. Especially the part with frogs and orchids together. :biggrin:

Hi Matilda and welcome to the Orchid Board.

Hi, Matilda. Welcome. Where in NC are you from. I'm in Wingate which is just southeast of Charlotte.

Well hello! I'm from outside of Raleigh.

Well HAY how are you I have cousins in Taylorsvill and did live there for a while myself .....In fact my three new catt orchids are from there.I went to vist this summer and went to Ironwood estates to buy them.Just otside of Hickory.


Welcome aboard

:welcome: to the OB !
Glad you found us and happy to have you on board! :)

Matilda, there is a nice place called Orchid Trail which is not far from you. They have a number of nice species.

Funny you should say that! I found that name for the first time here on OB, in the Vender feedback section. Just a couple days ago, actually. I've already printed out directions and have plans to pay them a visit on Saturday. :biggrin:

Always good to see NC folks in here, and welcome to you!

Here's a few pictures I took while I was there. Not much but you get the idea.

Welcome to the forum! You came to the right place! My mom lives in Shallotte NC,right off the Intercoastal, so we visit NC frequently! Lovely state!! You have some awesome orchid nurseries in NC! Also love visiting Seagrove for all the lovely pottery(and there is an orchid nursery there,too)!

Welcome to Orchid Board :welcome:

Thanks everyone!

Love those pics harrywitmore. Can't wait to get out there on Saturday :biggrin:

Shallotte is one of my all time favorite places. The Shallotte/Supply area is beautiful and unspoiled as of the last time I was down there (ermm 20 years ago. Probably spoiled by now by all the people who move to places like that because they aren't yet spoiled, lol). Seriously though, beautiful area.

My sister lives in Supply and it is a cool area on the Shallotte River. Take your camera, CCARD and camera and show us what you saw.
