The society meets on the third monday of every month at 8:00 pm at the Uniting Church Hall, Carrington Avenue, Strathfield, Sydney.
Meetings include a table top display, informative and educational talks in orchid culture and related issues. The society conducts a points style competition for orchids in various classes and genera, in a enjoyable social atmosphere.
A sales table operates at the meetings where members can purchase orchids and orchid related supplies such as pots, stakes, fertiliser and other goods - at excellent prices!
Visitors are always most welcome. If you are interested and are after any information please feel free to email the society.
The meetings are also a chance to meet other orchid growers, get advice on cultivation issues and view orchids in flower that you may never have seen before!
We put on a number of shows each year at shopping complexs and horticulture displays such as the Easter Show. Such exhibitions are a chance to display your orchids and have them judged against plants from a large number of hobbyists. Additionally the shows provide an avenue for buying and selling excess orchids.
Such shows include a variety of table top and feature displays along with demonstrations of repotting and informative talks.
Below are some pictures from one of our shows at Rockdale Plaza in 2001.
