hello from los angeles...
 

hi... i'm gumbii from the city of bell gardens... been growing orchids for about 10 years now... i've had great success, but every time i go through serious family problems, i let them die... :( but i'm back at it and in full force...


right now i have some epidendrum, epiphylum, some phals, some oncidium, a dendrobium and some cattleya... i recently found some mini vandas that i thought were lost and mounted them...


i'm here to check my facts... i'm starting a youtube channel and part of it will showcase orchids... don't worry, i won't be a walking advertisement for my channel... LOL... that annoys me and i'm sure it does the same to you fine folk...


i also grow nice flowering succulents... mostly stapeliads... they're my thing... i have a ton of them...


well, i hope i get welcomed in this board, and hope to share my limited knowledge and gain some from you fellow growers...

thank you...

Welcome, gumbii!

thank you...

:waving Welcome to the Orchidboard gumbii. Very interesting video you have here. I like the hangers you made and how much character your choice of wood had.

well, i'm an artist... i paint and sculpt... so i have an interesting way of seeing things... all my non plant friends saw the video and said i'm too artsy... i'm like... i just hung some plants... how is that artsy...


but i guess everything i do has a touch of my art in it... crazy...

thanks for watching... ♥

I know exactly what you mean, I have worked with almost every type of craft/art medium there is purely as an amateur. Sometimes to non artist folks they can't see the need to make something with a creative touch look fabulous. Keep up the good work! :mrgreen:

Welcome to orchid board.

Hi Gumbi, I am an artist as well! I sculpt and live in New Mexico! Maybe we ought to get an "artists who love orchids things going!" I'll subscribe. My Youutube is Doggisarus (not sure why any more)
