Default Greetings from Sarasota, FL

Hi Everyone! I've been reading information on this forum for awhile, and thought I'd go ahead and join to continue learning and hopefully help share info too.

A little about myself - as my username indicates, I'm a fountain designer. Large-scale commercial, civic, and show fountains, not the kind of water features you'll see in residential yards (though I plan to build one for myself soon, and am happy to try to help out with questions anyone may have regarding their own ponds and fountains).

Among my many hobbies, gardening is at or near the top of the list - and within gardening, orchids are definitely at the top. I grow all of my plants outdoors, several growing in trees, the majority in hanging wooden baskets. I currently have around two dozen or so orchids, in a variety of genera. I need to go out into the lanai and yard this weekend and log them all for a more complete description

In addition to orchids, my landscaping and plant collection includes a large variety of succulents, bromeliads, ferns, aroids, and other flowering and non-flowering plants.

I just made a little gallery with some photos taken around my yard; they ended up in the Member Galleries instead of User Galleries - I'm still learning my way around here LOL
