Default A hello from Brazil
Well, my name is Felipe, I'm from Petropolis a little city in southeast of Brazil.
Please, sorry for my terrible english.
My history with orchids started about six years ago, I was walking in a little forest near my house. So a little plant fell in my head (I think that a little piece of root was in my head ) I thought very interesting the shape and the green color of those flowers. Then I discovered it was an orchid of the genus Gomesa (Gomesa recurva) , so I tried to find a way to cultivate it. Was done, I had become a orchid grower.
Today I have about 150 orchids.
This is my history...

Welcome! Great story about how you got into orchids! I have always wanted to go to Brazil. Hopefully someday! I would love to see Brazilian orchids in their natural environment. Brazilian species are some of my favorites! Can't wait to see some of your orchids!
