Default New Orchid enthusiast

OrchidBoard colleagues,

My first intimate relation with orchid flowers is only three months old when I bought a few orchid plants (flowering) from a city nursery. Now the flowers started wilting, and I felt a pain. Started searching for Orchid information on the Internet and found this interesting site.

The straight forward nature of the OrchidBoard site made me an instant enthusiast.

Hi Vijay, Welcome to the Orchid Board!

I think that your introduction got lost/was hiding in the "Don't Be Shy" sticky post that Marty made and you did not receive the warm and friendly welcome that our new members traditionally receive. Now that your post has been moved, all will see it.

Hopefully you have been able to visit us often and are considering further posts. We have a lot of features to offer and great members with much experience to share.

Join us for a Chat sometime at 8 pm est. Who knows what will be talked about.....certainly orchids will come up in conversation! Post some pictures in your own album in the Gallery. To mention a few of the features of the OB.

Aboard Vijay, glad you could join us here at the OB. A great place to hang out and a wealth of information not to mention a friendly group of orchid addicts that comes with your registration.
