Golden Raised Orchids

Mostly specialize in Orchid 'rescue', rehabilitating Orchids in the poorest shape due to either neglect or lack of education. I also like to collect unique varieties of Orchid. I currently have a little over 140 Orchids of varying species. Come visit me on Facebook (Golden Raised Orchids) . I grew up around Orchids, as my grandfather was the resident Orchid specialist for Selby Botanical Gardens and I began volunteering in the plant shop and giving tours at a young age. Although he is no longer here to give me guidance, he is and will always be my inspiration! His techniques and practices were simple and natural, and those are the ways that I grow my Orchids as well. I try to grow all of mine the way they grow in nature, which means the majority of my collection are grown bare rooted. I love to learn everything I can about this amazing plant, and can never get enough of the topic. With so many species and hybrids out there, there is always something new to learn and something new to see!
