G'day from Australia!
 
Glad to be part of this orchid group.
I have been growing orchids for nearly ten years and have a mixed genera collection of about 300 orchids. I have served the local orchid society as an Editor for the newsletter, President for three years, and Webmaster for five years.
My main problem in growing orchids is not having enough light for my plants due to the large trees in my ...and the neighbours gardens.
Made lots of good friends through this hobby, as the orchid growers in this area are a happy fun-loving and helpful bunch.

Hugs for you all,
Marleneann.

Welcome Marleneann !

Which part of Australia are you from ? Sounds like you have a nice collection. Looking forward to seeing some of it.

Thanks for the welcome Marty.
I have a website with a page for... "Where I live"

Oh, I am soo envious !!! I was fortunate to visit the Sunshine coast back in December... It is absolutely beautiful !!! Very nice part of the country you live in. That would be definitely one of the places where I'd love to live... not too crazy about the jelly fish though :)

Could you suggest any sources of info as to what is happening with breeding with Austrailian dendrobiums? What's hot in Austrailia?

Hello Anyara....are you asking about hard cane or native denrobium?
