Lee was introduced to orchids and gardening at a young age. The son of an accomplished English cottage gardener and florist, Lee spent much of his childhood in the garden just outside Portland, Oregon. At age 8 his parents returned from their 2nd honeymoon in Hawaii with a Dendrobium kingianum and Lee was bitten by the orchid bug. By the time he was in college he was growing over 100 plants in his studio apartment, but only a few were orchids. After he graduated college, Lee’s mother gifted him the Dendrobium kingianum under the condition that he get it to rebloom, which it had not done in over 10 years.
