My name is Karma. I love all orchids, but if pressed to name favorites it would have to be miniature orchids, primarily of the Pleurothallidinae persuasion. But a Paphiopedilum was the first orchid I ever fell in love with so slipper orchids will always be close to my heart, and while we are on the subject I might as well disclose a love affair with Neofinetia as well.

A lot has happened in my life since I published this content. In a nutshell, I have moved to New Zealand, so my growing conditions have completely changed and I no longer have to grow indoors. As of 2016 I no longer update this website, but I have chosen to leave the content up as a legacy of information for anyone who might find it useful. Cheers!
