Every month, members bring blooming orchids from their collection to meetings. After a brief explanation of how the grower cares for the plant, members vote on their favorite blooms.
These photos are the winners of each category.
If you wish to bring a plant for show and tell, download the Show and Tell form here: Show and Tell Form, fill it out, and place it next to your plant during the meeting. We highly encourage members to bring plants to meetings!
Please read the Show and Tell rules before entering. Rules available here: show-and-tell-rules.
