August 4 Repotting Demo

The August meeting will be a demonstration of various repotting techniques for a variety of genera led by the mother/daughter team of Linda Horton and Emily Quinn. They will show how to repot different orchid types and show some different mounting techniques. They will also give sources for materials needed. Both Linda and Emily are orchid judges with the Dallas Judging Center. They have been growing orchids for decades – we won’t mention how many…!  They have a greenhouse filled with a variety of orchid genera and can usually be found in said greenhouse working with them. Repotting can be a scary thought for new orchid growers but it is a basic skill we all need. So come join us and get tips to tackle this topic!

Orchids 101 will be led by Lorna, who will talk about how orchids are named, and then take questions about growing orchids.
