Hello

Hello,
I have grown orchids in the past, but lost my entire collection a few years ago during a move. Recently i was browsing through orchid auctions on ebay and i decided to get back into orchids. I have ordered some orchids that should get here in the next couple of days. I joined this forum to use as a reference for any orchid issues that come up. I will probably not post very much, but i do enjoy reading other peoples posts.

I was looking through the forums, and i see that there is a Hybrid Orchid project going on. Is that something that i could get involved with, and if so what would i need to do?

Thanks,
C.J.

Hi Pea Ridge and welcome to the forum!!!! I don't see why you couldn't be involved. Get ahold of Jerry Meola. You need to send him an email. I say the more the merrier. Welcome aboard!!!

Welcome to the forum. And more importantly, welcome back to orchids!

What kind of orchids did you just order? You can PM or email Jerry about the project and you will be able to order some at a great price.

I too had abandoned my orchids earlier in life. Those were the worst years...

I lost plants, also- Not orchids, but plants I really cared about. I've only been involved with orchids a short time but i am totally addicted. Good to have you with us, and sure you can join in the project! We're all ordering the Den. Cathy Beck as a plant to compare- Many of us have bought more of different types, too! Welcome back to orchids and to our forum!!!
