First of all my apologies for the pore English I speak Dutch!

I'm not that new in the orchid hobby, but a first timer on this forum!
In Belgium I've started som 30 years ago looking for orchids wich grow here in the free nature. But I've med an Antwerp Profesor Biology who learned me about tropical orchids.

The bigges intrest stays studieng orchids in the wild!

I make a lot of trips in europe but also elseware. All in function of orchids!

And togerther with an other Patrick, we have our own Flemisch orchid site.
PnPorchids with extension .be for Belgium.

You might com and visit us on our site.
Feel welcom,

Hi Patrick -
I briefly visited your site and it looks like it would be interesting if you had an English version/option. Not many of us here on this site speak ANY dutch - so you are way ahead of us speaking some English. mike

Hi Patrick.

I agree with Mike. So if or when you do add an English version of your site, please let us know.

[Patrick]

Thanks for visiting my site.

As you see I speak Dutch and my English is far to pore to write articles.
I can read and do some small talk...

But one never know, if I find someone, who would help my on translations.

I must say, I like this forum also, you will be hering of my in the future.

Grtz,
Pat

Hey Anton,

Thanks, this could be a great help. If you visited the site you've seen that its a two man organisation. Patrick & Patrick. I will talk to Patrick (Nickname : Angrek). But the tip is verry usefull.

Why did you put : (no financial interest in the site) under the URL?
If I understand it well you have the posibility to choose for free translations and for translations, you need topay. There would be some difference I supose?

Groetjes,
Patrick (Phal)

Putting "No financial Interests" just is a courtesy thing to let people know you aren't promoting a company you have financial interests in. If you have financial interest in a product or company, then you say that you do, just so that people know that you are pushing a product that is going to benefit you financially.

If you pay with that site they will do full interpretation with the correct translation, grammer etc..

The free part of the site will do an exact word for word translation, but that's all. Hope this helps.
