Pam Waters

Born in Thailand and moved to the United States in 2004 at the age of 24. All that time I grew up in a country with a wide variety of orchid species but did not become interested or aware of orchids until I moved to the United States.

Once in America, I fell in love with orchids. I started growing and collecting orchids because they looked so interesting and, then in 2011, I fell in love with an orchid grower.
We decided to open a business in 2013, “Orchids in Bloom”. We grow a wide variety of orchids for retail sale and orchid shows.
