Identifying Blooms
Hello Bill!
Alt. inaries. pictres.orchids is a newgroup who exist. If your ISP doesn`t carry it, ask them to add it on their server! If not, you can also subscribe to other server such as Giganews.com, teranews.com etc... Because there`s so many different hybrid from one specie or another, it might be impossible to correctly identify your plant. We call those the NOID plant! A good place to buy orchid is to go to a gool orchid seller and even there, sometimes we endup with a NOID plant! Good Luck! Claude "Dr Bill" wrote in message om... | As a relative newcomer to orchids, I have spent most of my efforts in | buying orchids from Lowes, Home Depot, etc. that have already bloomed. | These are, 1) very inexpensive (1/2 to 2/3 off retail price) and, 2) | not identified. | I can tell a Phalaenopsis from a Dendrobium from a Paphiopedilum, but | as these orchids rebloom, I have no idea how to identify them any | further. | | With a few, I have been lucky to find their picture in a book or in a | catalogue. However, the vast majority remain a mystery. I have tried | searches in this newsgroup and on Google, but the only site I come up | with is alt.binaries.pictures.orchids, and that doesn't seem to exist. | | Is there a site where I can post pictures I have taken of the blooms | in hopes that one of you experts might recognize the plant? I know | that digital photos are large files, but does such a service exist | within this newsgroup or perhaps at some aacademic institution? | | Thanks for any help you can give me. |
