Tim Carr, Society member and AOS Associate Judge will be presenting this month’s program “Travelogue-Orchids of the Dominican Republic”. Some of our members travel around the world to visit orchid habitats in interesting locations. Tim, who also is this year’s GNTOS vice president, will be sharing pictures of his trip. Tim has been growing orchids for 7 years and spread his collection into a greenhouse in 2017! Come join us as we “travel” to the Dominican Republic.

Orchids 101 will take place in the greenhouse at 2pm with Lorna sharing tips on putting your orchids outside for the summer.

The March 3 program on “Growing Orchids in DFW” will be presented by Dotty Woodson who has been growing and hybridizing orchids with her husband since 1973.  They have 5,000 square feet of greenhouses and have registered 64 hybrids and won many awards.  Dotty is retiring from Texas A&M AgriLife Research and Extension Center as an Extension Program Specialist and has numerous degrees. Following the presentation, we’ll have our usual table judging and raffle. See you there!

Orchids 101 will be at 2pm in the greenhouse. Kathi will be leading the discussion.
