>>I have about 25 orchids so I always have at least one a month blooming<<

I also grow orchids, and have a commercial size greenhouse. Right now it is "survival of the fittest" in my greenhouse, since I don't spend the time I really should to take care of the various kinds of orchids I grow. I have several kinds of orchids...but mainly Phalaenopsis (moth orchid), Dendrobiums, Oncidiums, and some Cymbidiums. When I first started using the Internet I signed up for the Orchids List Digest, which is made up of growers from all over the world. (mainly professional growers). I no longer take that newsletter, but I did pick up some great ideas of how to deal with Mealy Bugs from that list!

A resource that I've found for gardening supplies, and Greenhouse supplies is Charley's Greenhouse & Garden. (1 -800-233-3078) They also have a web site charleysgreenhouse.com where you can order supplies or a catalog.

For Fall Planting of bulbs, the best bulbs IMO are from Dutch Gardens. (1-800-818-3861) or dutchgardens.com
I found this resource from a friend who always had the most beautiful tulips growing...and I discovered "her secret" was buying great bulbs.

Just thought I'd pass on these resources for the Gardeners Anonymous board!
