I have been reading this forum for a while, so I think it is time for a little introduction and greeting to all.
I wanted to say how much I appreciate the quality of this forum, the photographs in many posts are stunning (a big difference with other places online...) and many discussions are very informative, precise and helpful :clap:
although I miss some of the good old 'look at my new phal rescued from HD' :evil:
In a few words, I am a Frenchie living in Canada, the beautiful area of Vancouver, British Columbia, where we are lucky to have a very cool and humid climate, we just miss the warmth to feel like in tropical forest :rollhappy: so it is very good to grow Pleurothallids on the porch of the house or on the roof ! I have a very small culture area in an appartment, so way less orchids than I would love to have...:sob: but I still manage to have a bit of bio-diversity my kitchen, including :
Phrag Jason Fischer (seedling from Jason himself
), Paph hybrid reliable bloomer (Oriental Lawrence x Clair de Lune), Paph helenae (seedling, never bloomed yet)
a few Masdevallia (outside most of the year), a few Neofinetia (I love Neos... if I could I would have dozens... but for now only : 'Oonami Seikai'
, 'Benisuzume', 'Hisui', 'Seibotan', 'Tougen' ), a few Maxillaria (sophronitis, skunkeana, tenuifolia), and some miniature I love too : Chiloschista, Schoenorchis fragrans, Podangis dactyloceras, Pteroceras semiteretifolium,...
Sorry for the lengh of this introduction, I am looking forward to reading more from you guys, and happy growing !
Just a few pics:
Neofinetia 'Tougen' (not completely sure of the form, no tag when I bought it but it is close...) from 2009 bloom, it is currently growing 4 spikes, yeahhh !!! I will post more pics when in full bloom
Paphiopedilum Oriental Lawrence x Clair de Lune
Masdevallia coccinea alba
Schoenorchis fragrans
