Welcome to the forum Uechi!!

We certainly welcome questions. There are a lot of people here with a lot of very valuable information, and they give it to us for free.

Couple of questions for you.

What kind of orchids do you have?
Do you have any pictures of them?

Also, if you would go to your user profile and update your location it will be helpful when any member wants to give advice. We are from all over the world, with a wide variety of growing conditions, so to give accurate advice we will need to know a little about your growing conditions.

Glad to have you here, hope you enjoy your stay.

Welcome Uechi! Ask anything you want. Orchidgeeks will give you the best advice!

(Just be careful, they might make you addictive to orchids, like they made me )

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome. I am newbie so I only have a few orchids. Right know I am sticking with easy to grow orchids but fragrant. If anyone has a recommended source for a BLC Empress Worsley " Roman Holiday " it would be appreciated. I have not been able to find a source of supply and I have looked at quite a few websites. I am also looking for Vanda Insignis, Pumila and Tellellata. Again no luck. Any help would be great. Regards and thanks again for the welcome.

Hi UECHI, welcome to the forum. With ref. to Roman Holiday, you might like to try :

Mickey's Orchids - Specializing in Frequent Bloomers - Mounted Orchids

The site is in Fort Lauderdale and you may find they have plants for sale.
