Hello everyone!

I am from Southern Ontario and have no experience whatsoever growing ANYTHING (let alone orchids)!

I've always loved the way they look, and my mother happened to see that there was an orchid show in town, so she picked up a plant for me.

I'm still learning how to give it the best care I can! Looking forward to learning a lot here.

Welcome, welcome and WELCOME!

Lots of information can be found here. This is where I have learned so much from so many.

Good luck -- and warning: Before you know it, you'll have orchids growing in every space you have, then you'll be re-arranging things just to add more. Most of us here have this problem!!
