Hi All!
First, a special "thank you" to all of you that make this forum possible!
Second, I have to thank Linda Frog for bringing this forum to my attention!
OK, a little about me... I have been growing orchids for about twelve years. Of course I started with the recommended easy orchids to grow; Phal's., Cat's., Den's, etc. After reading anything that I could get my hands on (did not have a computer at the time), I joined a couple of Orchids Societies in my area. And then it happened...Glen Decker came to speak at the Long Island Orchid Society. Needless to say, I was hooked! Shortly afterwards, I went to visit Glen at his Long Island greenhouse (when he lived in the area), and I was just blown away seeing his magnificent orchids. I was ready for my first Phrag. and he generously sold me a beautiful division of his Phrag. schlimii 'Wilcox' AM/AOS. What a wonderful orchid! Slowly, I started to collect more Phrag. during my visits to Glen and other reliable growers.
At this point I have a nice collection of orchids; however, I love growing Phrags! And we all know how mysterious growing these wonderful orchids can be! I truly need the support of this group to help me learn more about some of paphs. & phrags. that I have. Hopefully, I will be able to share my experience with others. But what is really important to me, is to stay excited about this species of orchids and I know that I have found the right place!
Thank you,
CLMoss
