Hello, New here, Long time Orchid grower
 

Hello,

I am new to the boards here, But have been living with Orchids for years now. I started with a passion for Paphs, And found myself with a huge collection of paph rothschildianum, I was afflicted with that You have to have the next great cross. But over the years my small collection of Vanda’s have taken most of my time and interest. I have a growing collection of species that I say I live with as apposed to grow.

With the warm weather showing it’s self on a consistent bases in the Mid-west I will be moving them outside.

I am looking forward to interacting with you all, If there is ever any questions I can help anyone with please ask, As Orchids are my real passion in life. My Roth’s are really now on Auto pilot as they live in the grow room year round. So anything I can help with on that is easy. My Vanda’s there another storey. Sometimes they really like me, Other times they hate me. But not to often,

So with that I will say hello and hope to interact with many here
