Hi From France
 

Hi,
I am new to the forum and I live in France. I am relatively new to orchids as well. I have 5 ; a promnea sunlight, a minature phal, a cattalaya, a dendrobium atkatuski (sorry for the bad spelling) and a cool growing minature that I lost the tag for. I find orchids so fascinating and the cattalaya and the promnea are new. The others I have had for a while and have never been able to get the minature and the dendrobium to rebloom. But that's ok, i have hope as they both are trying to produce kekeis. So someday maybe.

Anyway, thanks for having me!
Melannie

Welcome to the board. Everyone here is great, happy to help and lots of knowledge.

Welcome Melannie!

Welcome to Orchidboard Melannie!
I am also a Frenchie, but living in the Netherlands. I hope we can help you figure out why your Phal and Den are not blooming, usually the problem is not enough light.

Welcome to the Orchid Board, Melannie!

Welcome, Melannie.:)
If you don't mind, where do you live in France?

:Welcomeflowers: Melanie!

Welcome Melannie. Love your name. And you will love OrchidBoard. So much to learn here from all the long-time growers.

I too just joined and I am in France - Nice. New to orchids, but not to plants, and trying out epiphytes on the trees of my courtyard back garden - just bought a selection to see how they do. Winters around 10C at night, summer highs usually below 30C. Dry summers, rain October/November mostly. Love to trade experiences with anyone in similar locations.
