intro
Hi All -- I rec'd an email notification that this forum was starting for Paphs, so I signed on. I only had one problem - when you get to that security box where you are supposed to copy those squiggly numbers & letters, it doesn't say they are Case Sensitive - had to re-enter three or four times before I realized that.
I don't know if it is appropriate to list what I am into or not, but there wasn't enough room on the Profile boxes. We are a wholesale commercial orchid nursery in deep south Florida specilizing in high quality unique colored Phal and Paph (mostly multi-floral) hybrids and now expanding into the newer Catasetinae hybrids. I have a website but I'm still trying to figure out how to set this up to sell off of. I am goint to try selling direct to the public @ basically wholesale prices (semi-wholesale), but I can't even figure out how to set up a Shopping Cart yet. So, for now, the website is just pictures and contact info. Barbara and I are very involved in Chinese, Taiwanese, and Japanese teas. I have expanded our orchid business into landscape palms and bamboo to try to round off the "dead" sales seasonability of the orchid business. I am a relatively small orchid nursery @ 40,000 sq' (0.4 hectare/ 3700 m2) and because of the uncertainty of the wholesale market down here, I am staying the same size.
Well, that is about enough ranting. Glad to be a part of the forum.
