Hey everyone new to these forums. From New York City. Recently got into the Orchid culture. It is quite exciting trying to do this right.

Hi from NYC Male
Talking Hello fellow NY'er

Welcome to the rest of your life. I am/was from NYC too so I k now the challenges. Not a lot of places to buy orchid in NY. You should definitely check out the Brooklyn botanical garden(free wed? if I recall). They have a nice collection. When I was living in NY I always drove out to Parkside orchids. Home Page

They are located 'bout 2 hours from the city. You gotta take the GWB. I would definitely say they r the best nursery in the Northeast. I started out with orchids from home depot and the first time I went to parkside changed my life, and the balance in my bank.

What r u growing now?

Thanks we have been to the Bronx botanic garden during the orchid show it was amazing. Presently we are in orchid rescue mode. Have two phals trying to save. One adapted to the new medium the other is struggling Basically just inherited some from my folks and I thought I'd do it right. They were drowning in sphangum moss. Never considered myself much of a flower person until my wife left for vacation and I took to it some how became a bit of a hobby!
