Hi there!
I've just stumbled into the wonderful world of orchids! My mom had a couple when I was a kid - all Oncidiums, still going strong - and her father grew dozens when she was young. A few months ago, I decided that it was time to try my hand with orchids, too. I now have 1 Den, 2 Onc (dang it no sharry baby yet), and 7 phals (all of which are in bloom).
I have fairly good lighting, but I'm looking into artificial light sources, since I have a feeling my collection will continue to expand....
Any suggestions to guide me in the right direction?
