Well it all starts with deciding which orchids you want to grow. They are such a diverse group. Take a look at my orchid blog if you like:

I so love growing my Orchids get lots of pleasure.

But have to say they dont like the cold .

And give you blooms for many weeks and also reblooms

Good luck.

Scroll down to the alphabet at the bottom, choose O then you'll see a list of topics, Orchids are there and you'll have a wealth of photos, questions and answers from years of GOY.....
