Hello
 

:hello ,
Iam Nalini kottolli, new member. Gardening is my passion, rather obsession. I am a collector of plants & grow them in containers, as I dont have groung place. I have around 300 orchids, consisting of Dendrobiums, Oncidiums, Cattleyas, Phalaenopsis, Slipper orchid, Vandas & some species,
I am in Bangalore, India. It is difficult to get the orchid plants, as we dont have nurseries selling Orchids, like Carter & homes Or Kruller, as in US. Painstakingly I have been collecting Orchids since 20 years.

What everybody else here is thinking, pictures please! :)
