Welcome to Catt House Orchids and to this new adventure. I’m excited to finally have a place to share my plants, knowledge, and ponderings.
Orchids have been part of my life for a very long time, and I’m looking forward to using this space to share what is happening in the greenhouse, plants that are in bloom, projects I’m working on, cultural observations, and whatever else seems worth passing along.
As we begin what orchid growers think of as show season, I also want to highlight the Wisconsin Orchid Society’s Fall in Love with Orchids 2026 Orchid Show & Sale, taking place September 12–13 at the Mitchell Park Horticultural Conservatory — The Domes — in Milwaukee.
I’m looking forward to attending and judging what I’m sure will be some amazing plants. Just as importantly, shows like this are a chance to reconnect with old friends, meet new ones, and spend time with people who share the same enthusiasm for orchids.
I’m excited to see where this new website and this next chapter of Catt House Orchids lead.
