Default G'day from Australia!

Glad to be part of this orchid group.
I have been growing orchids for nearly ten years and have a mixed genera collection of about 300 orchids. I have served the local orchid society as an Editor for the newsletter, President for three years, and Webmaster for five years.
My main problem in growing orchids is not having enough light for my plants due to the large trees in my ...and the neighbours gardens.
Made lots of good friends through this hobby, as the orchid growers in this area are a happy fun-loving and helpful bunch.

Hugs for you all,
Marleneann.

Oh, I am soo envious !!! I was fortunate to visit the Sunshine coast back in December... It is absolutely beautiful !!! Very nice part of the country you live in. That would be definitely one of the places where I'd love to live... not too crazy about the jelly fish though

M! I can't believe I never greeted you! Could've sworn I did but I guess I had a brain burp
We've already become good friends but here goes anyway

Welcome Marleneann! You're gonna love this place
