Here you will find photographs of my small orchid collection. I've been keeping orchids since 1998 after acquiring a few specimens. I was warned by fellow hobbyists that orchids are addictive; just see my collection now! Can't forget my other plant addictions so check out the brugmansia and succulents too!
