New, and a sucker for a mistreated orchid...

[Jehannette]

Yeah...my $9 investment plus pots & orchid mix last year have given me 3 phalenopsis, one purple, one white/purple, and one yellow/purple. It is sort of like christmas...a whole bunch of times...

Its like Christmas when I see the first healthy roots peaking up at me...

And its sure like Christmas when I first see what color they are going to be

And again, Christmas when I get to look at the blooms for more than a month.

An investment of a six-pack or so of home brew got me an epidendron from a friend...

They make me very, very happy.

Pictures might take me a while, but I'll get on that.
