how did you end up in Thailand and how is life? what are you doing there?

I always wanted to retire outside U.S. and Thailand has everything I like at a good price and it is like living inside a greenhouse.

It's a Bulbophyllum, but unfortunately I don't know much about them so I can't tell you which one, or how to grow it. Hopefully a Bulbo grower can chime in. What I can tell you is that Bulbos are very diverse and vary in cultural requirements. That's a very attractive one you've got there!

OH great ! how old are you?
well in the past year I went to Jamaica and Haiti - and there was something I loved even with nothing...
Jamaica was great when I rented a bicycle and went miles over the hills to the countryside.

Is it hard to get a visa to live there? is it cheap? are you by the ocean and travel to nearby countries?

maybe you could grow some species and sell them to us orchidboard members!


well good luck - post pictures or links to pictures.
Did you make friends there?

I think its a Trias sp.

Well I haven't studied the taxonomy of the Bulbophyllinae, so I have no opinion on whether Trias should be classified as Bulbophyllum or not. I just classify all the Bulbophyllinae as Bulbophyllum for the sake of simplicity. Perhaps one day I'll look into this group and form an opinion...

life here is so good words can not explane the joys of living here. i know many that have tryed but failed to put it in words. It has to be tryed for a month.

i am to be 60 in april. buying a bike this month as i am move out into village life and out of my condo. iI will have a yard and as a former landscape designer
iwill enjoy it. I am buying a peddle bike this month.

WOW!!!!! Sounds wonderful and I hope you can travel a bit there. Be sure to send us lots of pics.

I admire your advertuesome sprit.

Sorry, I can't help you identify your plant but I do admire it.
