Hi from a commercial nursery - Orchid Board

Hi

I am new to this board. Several of my customers told me it was a group I should join, so here I am. I am a commercial nursery in Fort Myers, Florida.

Whenever I give advice on home growing orchids, it is based on my personal collection, which I grow manually like everyyone else with the same problems, not the commercial greenhouse. It is so much easier to grow anything with automatic sprinklers preventing you from not watering enough.

and welcome to OrchidBoard! I think you will like it here. Everyone is so friendly! I'm sure that you will feel right at home. We will appreciate your experience as well. Do you have a website for your business? I think I found it but I'm not sure.

Hi Jerry!

Glad to see you here. It's been a while.

I have missed talking to you Sandy.

The growing project you started was popular and people are still comparing results.

It is nice to talk to you again Al.

Once I get used to the different settings on this bulletin board I will post a bunch of interesting topics.
