One day not
long ago, I asked our orchid growing friends what it was,
exactly, that made orchids-- these unique plants with such strange flowers--
so alluring, so nearly impossible to resist.
The answer,
in so many words, always boiled down to this: tending orchids linked
each one of us to what was mysterious, beautiful, and profoundly awe-inspiring
on this planet in a way that nothing else could. Orchids wind up demanding
to surround you. They demand your passion for life. In return, they
will reward you with sublime beauty, and, if you're attentive, orchids
will transport you to distant and mysterious shores.
We want you
to visit those shores with us.
And we created the OrchidTalk Orchid Forums to ensure that your journeys leave you surprised and filled
with joy.
Take your
time here to browse our orchid site, explore the Orchid Forum where
orchids are the main topic of conversation, chat gardener to gardener
in our virtual 3D world, Casmira, and pick up some repotting and growing
tips in our orchid care section. We are strong supporting members of the Sierra Club, and make it our goal to help
conserve the natural resources that make orchids possible in the
first place.
I know you
will enjoy your journeys with us. I urge you to keep coming back!
