Welcome Virgil!
Glad to have you on 'board'! 
Once an orchid lover always an orchid lover
especially during times when we let orchids go for whatever reason ..
Glad you are back into the swing of things again.
Love your little greenhouse! 
I'd love to know the names of your blooming Catts.  |

You've got a good friend. He or she took really good care of them. It could've been a disaster huh?

Hello Virgil, welcome to OB. I am also a fellow Louisiaianian. From the Northeast corner tho, near Monroe.
Also I would be intersted in seeing more of you greenhouse. I have a small free standing one but will need lots of mods for orchid growing. Thinking of doing a leanto, similar to yours, attached to back of house.
Ma ybe we can get together sometime and trade war stories, opps meant growing stories.
