| OrchidWire is designed and maintained by Wendell Kozak. I live on Vancouver Island, off the west coast of Canada's mainland. |  | | I started this project in 1996 as "Pollinia". Pollinia was a web directory, combined with a web crawler, that indexed only orchid-related sites. Both the crawling and serving was done over a dedicated 56K modem! |
 |
| In 1999 I registered the orchidwire.com domain name. Since that time, OrchidWire has undergone many changes. Over the years I have experimented with several features. However the server stats would always indicate that the resource links pages were by far the most well used. | | The main focus now is on making OrchidWire the most comprehensive source for orchid site listings available! I could use your help. If you know of a site (with orchid content, of course) not listed on OrchidWire, please send me the URL. Listings are free. |  | | OrchidWire is visited by people from over 120 countries every month. I hope you enjoy your visit here, and discover many interesting sites about orchids. Please come back often! | |
