Hi all,
Just thought I'd introduce myself, my name is Jo and I live in Western Australia. At the moment I have about 15 Dendrobium Kingianums, 2 Dendrobiums, 4 Cymbidium, 1 Epidendrum and 1 Paphiopedilum. I've only been growing Orchids for about a year or so and am totally addicted! I look forward to the discussions in here :) Cheers for now, Jo :) |

Hi Jo
Welcome to the group. Where abouts are you in WA - BIG state! I suggest you join a WA orchid society if you haven't already. Tony Watkinson is President of the Species Orchid Society of WA and if you are into species orchids I am sure he would love to have you as a member and if not he could direct you to a more general club.

Welcome. I'd love to see some pictures of your kingianums. We don't post
pics here but we use alt.binaries.pictures.orchids for that. Hope to see some of your pictures there. Gary "Raevyn" wrote in message ups.com...

Welcome, Jo, from yet another Aussie. Glad to note your interest in Dendrobes.
(The longer standing contributors here are resigned to ny tunnel vision.) John mentioned Tony Watkinson to you. If you have downloaded the thread "Who we are revisited" you will see John's response there, as well as those of several others of the group. Hope you enjoy our company.

Hi Jo
I am, also in WA and connected to a number of Orchid Societies. If you let me know what suburb or town you are living in, I can direct you to a Society in your area where you can get loads of info re orchids. Don't be a stranger.

Thanks to you all for the friendly greetings, it's nice to meet such a
welcoming bunch :) Joanna, Thanks for the welcome :) Wendy, Thanks :) Love the Peter pan reference btw ^ ^ John, I'm in the South of Western Australia, in Albany. The weather here tends to be a bit cooler than it gets in Perth, which suits me very well :) Diana, looking forward to the conversations :) Gary, I'd be more than happy to post any pics I can find of my Kingies, most of which are hybrids. I've only been growing them a year so I don't have many pics yet, but I will post what I do have :) Dave, Thanks for the hello, great to meet a fellow Den enthusiast! I'm afraid I'm rather tunnel-visioned when it comes to Kingies, the first orchid I ever got was a Kingie and they remain my firm favorites :) Tony, nice to meet you, I live in Albany WA and I do know of the Orchid Society down here, however I keep forgetting when exactly they have their meetings :/ Thank You for being able to refer me on, although I do enjoy growing these beauties by myself some advice and tips would go a long way to help as I still consider myself a novice and don't know that much in the way of technical details of Orchid Care. :) Cheers all, Jo |

Tis a pity, cos if you grew the Albany Pitcher Plant I would be begging some
of of you. I have been trying to get my hands on a few plants of it for years. Please keep me in mind if you ever see any locally available from salvage etc I would be very interested in trading for some. Kye. "Raevyn" wrote in message ups.com...

Hi Ray, Thank You for the welcome!
Kye, if I do see any Albany Pitcher Plants availible I'd be more than happy to let you know and see what could be arranged :) Season's Greetings to everyone, I hope you have a safe and happy day :) Cheers Jo (P.S. I feel a bit silly, I wanted to post some pics to the alt.binaries.pictures.orchids but don't know how? Any tips welcome, Thanks :) ) |
