| Hi from CA Hi All, I've been growing orchids since 1992, when I moved to Sarasota, FL. After returning to CA in 2000, I took some orchid-growing classes and became a charter member of our local orchid society. I have served as VP for two years and am beginning a third. Because we live in cymbidium country, most of my outdoor plants are cymbidiums with laelias, schomburgkias and temperature-tolerant cattleyas. These are under oaks and 50% shade fabric. Indoors, I have the usual paphs, phals and cattleya hybrids. Much of my pleasure comes from experimenting with different media and fertilizers. Another source is the fellowship I experience in the orchid community of growers, vendors and artists who love orchids!

| Hi evelinn, Welcome to the forum. I'd be interested in hearing some of the outcomes of your potting mix experiments. I'm in Melbourne Australia, also a big Cymbidium region. -Kevin |

| Which species of Laelia and Schomburgkia perform well for you outside. I am compiling a list of Cattleya relatives that can be grown outside in California. |

| Which species of Cattleya, Laelia, and Schomburgkia do you grow outside? I am in the process of compiling a list of Cattleya family species that grow out-of-doors in mild climates. |

| Hi Evelinn, I too grow mainly cymbidiums, however, where se live in Tasmania, it is too cold to keep my cymbids outside during Autumn and Winter, even the start of Spring!! I usually put my cymbids out in the garden on a stand during the Summer. Anyway, Welcome from a newbee
