Greetings from Norway
 

Hello everyone.

I came here after a few Google searches, to get advice on identification and care for my new orchid, but found out I need five posts before I can post pictures. This is number one.

I just bought my first ever orchid, a beautiful, yellow, Cambria hybrid with slender and pointy leaves. I recently moved into a new apartment with my wonderful girlfriend and figured it was about time to get some plants to liven up the place. I'm all fresh in the field of proper orchid care, so I'm happy to have found a forum that, at least by first glance, seems to be active. I hope to be able to connect with a few people here and show some progress on my own orchid in the time to come and I want to learn as much as possible about caring for this plant and make it thrive.

I wish you all a happy weekend, do what thou wilt.

Welcome from Queens NY, and congrats on your Cambria and the start of your orchid adventure. I'm not experienced with Cambria cultivation, but I'm sure you can get a wealth of knowledge from past posts.

Good growing and good luck!

Thank you, I'm sure I can find what I need.

:welcomeflowers: Thanks for stopping by. You should fit right in . Members are friendly and very helpful.

Thank you, that is the impression I have as well, so far.

Hello and welcome. Glad you are here. Norway is on my list of places to travel one day. I hope to go when Morten Harket is in concert if I can manage to get tickets. I have to finish medical school first though.:waving

Welcome!

Cambrias aren't a specialty of mine, but you live in a beautiful country. I visited Norway once for a friend's wedding, and ended up skinnydipping in the fjörd where we were staying. No water should be THAT cold in August.:icy:

Yes, your country is lovely! I just returned from a cruise up the Norwegian coast; it was the trip of a lifetime! You will need to think about light for your plant during the long winter nights, but you are probably used to that!

Welcome!

Thanks for all the warm welcomes everyone. I'm happy to hear so many of you have visited/want to visit my country. The food and booze is a bit on the expensive side, but the fjords and mountains are beautiful :)

Welcome to the board.

Thank you.

Hello! I visited Norway in 2013, what a beautiful place. I was so lucky and saw the Aurora Borealis while I was there too! Took a trip on the Hurtigruten ship Finnmarken. I will never forget it.
And to think I was getting concerned about keeping my orchids warm enough over winter in the UK... :D
Welcome and well met. xx
