Enlightening

Would always look back on how i started growing orchids, particularly phalaenopsis...

The most striking part of the message are these few:

可是玩得越久.卻發現自己懂得越少
花~~~不曾因為人的眼光而改變她的綻放.
改變的是玩賞的人如何去欣賞到花最美麗的那一面.

Whoever that wrote this, thanks.... it's very enlightening...

"玩蘭花已經過了10多個年頭.
蘭花的毒~~~可以媲美海洛英了.
讓人深陷其中.樂此不疲.

可是玩得越久.卻發現自己懂得越少.
玩賞花的眼光.也不斷的在改變.
一開始只要是蘭花都覺得漂亮.
然後慢慢認識了一些品種.
於是懂得追求圓整的整形花.
這是最瘋狂的一段路程了.

接著看多了玩多了.眼光也不拘泥於世俗.
會開花就是好花了~~~~~
美麗的不是花的本身.而是玩賞者的眼光.
花~~~不曾因為人的眼光而改變她的綻放.
改變的是玩賞的人如何去欣賞到花最美麗的那一面.
每一棵花都是獨特而美麗的.
跟所有玩蘭花的前輩一樣".

New growing area

After a few months of hard work and lots of sweat and stolen time off from work; it's finally up and running.

Would like to say a big thank you to many many friends whom have given their time and advises to us. It has been a tough learning curve to me especially with no prior knowledge in managing a big plot of growing area. There are many people that i always grateful to... you know who you are... so guys, thank you!
