I have just joined this forum and would like to say hello.
I grow or kill mostly warm species orchids, and have been for about 17 years from florida to NC to here, New Orleans, LA.
I look forward to chatting and learning more from the folks here.
Thank you

Welcome Michael

If you like warm types, do try Catasetum

(if you don't have it, of course)

Hello and Welcome to the Orchid Board. Am glad you could join. Give us enough time to work with you and you should be growing and not killing more orchids

Howdy! Welcome to the board. Most of us have gone through the "killing fields" and many of us have graduated to growing some of the more difficult spp. Glad you are here and hope to read your posts.

Hi Michael...nice to have you with us

You've found a wonderful place to learn about orchids, meet some great people and have a lot of fun

What are you growing? Indoors or out?
Pictures, please

If you have any questions, let us know
