Hello from Nor Cal Female
Default Hi
Hello everyone.
Thanks for having me. I am excited to join such an informative site with such knowledgeable people. I am an avid gardener, but sort of new to Orchids (that aren't Phalenopsis) I had a nice collection before a fire (Weed Ca) that destroyed over 100 homes. I have moved since then and have started a new collection with more species. I have also just recently joined the American Orchid Society and my local (Humboldt County) society. In fact my first meeting is this Thursday. I have branched out to Oncidium, Odontoglosum, Cymbediums and Paphiopedilums. We have a few amazing local growers here. The area is pretty mild here and as I am very close to the ocean humidity isn't much of an issue. I'll be posting pictures of my original and new babies. As soon as I figure out how!!!
I just wanted to say thank you for having me. I can't wait to learn more. I know I already have lots of questions.

Welcome to our group!

So sorry about the fire. I visited Weed decades ago. I saw photos of the aftermath; it was heartbreaking.

Humboldt County is magnificently beautiful. You will have a great time growing all those cool orchids many of us just dream about. We look forward to seeing your plants!

Welcome to Orchid Board

You orchids are really beautiful!

I've merged your two intro threads into one for you. Don't worry about posting in the wrong place though, we are pretty relaxed
