Pierre began growing orchids in 2010 when two neighbors gifted him pieces of cymbidiums, which he helped them repot. He grew his collection first in his backyard in Redwood City, then expanded to a greenhouse space in Half Moon Bay.
Using his life science background and the quest for new challenges, he strived to provide the best care for his collection and then foray into creating his own hybrids.
Pierre enjoys sharing his orchid experience with fellow growers, with displays at local shows and presentations at orchid societies. His efforts have been rewarded with many CSA and AOS awards and his hybrids are now finding their way into many collections, as far as Thailand and Australia.
