    About Me

    I love to raise orchids now that my children are grown. This is a relaxing hobby, with ups and downs.  The Second best thing I like is having my grand children living with me these days,  they keep me moving and young. These exquisite creations that God has made reminds me of His infinite Wisdom and Love for all His creatures here on earth.  Take time to talk to God and thank Him for the many blessings and gifts He has given you.

    • Vuylstekearas may be either cool to cold growers or warm growers. The cold growers do not want day-time summer temperatures over 75 to 80 degrees F, and prefer winter night temperatures 45 to 50 degrees F. The warm growers usually have Miltonia spectibilis or some other warm grower in the back ground and can take very warm daytime temperatures and night temperatures 60-65 degrees during the winter months. The warm growers are as easy to grow as any other Oncidium Intergeneric. Charlie
