Howdy All!

I think I may have stumbled into the wrong section of the forum, but it's a start. Although I'm not a newbie, I hardly qualify as an advanced grower either.
I have a small greenhouse in the back yard of our patio home in Phoenix. When I say small, I mean small! It started out as an 8x6 foot kit 5 years ago and with some engineering and architectural design, it's now 8x8. That made a world of difference.
There are probably 100 orchids in there. We have unique problems related to our climate, so I'm going to look for a forum that deals with hot climates. If I don't find one, I'll start one. See you there!

hi and welcome.

how about it?

OK
What should the title be?
Growing in extreme climates?
Southwestern desert greenhouses?
Growing in a dry and hot climate?

Any ideas?
What do you think. I'm new at this.

Actually you don't need a new forum. Post under http://www.orchidboard.com/community...use-gardening/ or http://www.orchidboard.com/community...ed-discussion/ and most of the dry country folks on the board will probably see your posts. There are a lot of southwest desert country orchid growers here. Glad you chose to join. I'm interested in what you might want to post even though I'm in the snowy midwest.
