You do not have to be an orchid enthusiast or orchid amateur to enjoy this orchid show!  There’s something for everyone!

 

delray beach orchid society

New orchid lovers can find an array of basic orchids from vendors who are more than willing to share their easy orchid care and tips. You can also buy supplies that you won’t see in your big box home supply store.

Orchid enthusiasts who tire of buying the generic house orchids that every large store has can see and purchase species orchids, rare colors, as well as miniature orchids.

Photographers will have a field day! So many colors and so many types. Your smartphone will do but you might want to bring your “big boy” camera as well.

 

Helpful Tips:

*Upstairs Gallery You’ll want to head upstairs for the special displays that are awarded by knowledgeable judges.

*Raffles help support the society and you could walk away with some beautiful orchids.

*Parking You can park in the city lot just across the street from Old School Square or metered spaces along the street

Kathy, I would love to attend this orchid event. I can't seem to grow them and I do enjoy their beauty.

When I was a kid we only had a couple kinds of orchids.  There were the traditional orchid colored ones, and occasionally we'd see white ones.  But, now there is nearly every color in the rainbow.  Nice pictures, Kathy!

Kathy orchids are gorgeous flowers, but we just can't seem to be able to grow them in my house.

Hi Kathy - Mary would be all over that event if it were here. She has the knack for orchids and has found some exotic ones that are doing very well. They really are easier than their reputation would have us believe, and they're so pretty.

Hello Ms. Barbara Todaro is a TG catus the same as a Christmas cactus? You can treat an orchid the same way and it will live! Here is a tip....3 ice cubes every Monday morning...that's it...happy orchid

George Souto When I was in VA my orchids stayed inside about 8 months out of the year. I had a humidifier for them. 

Dick Greenberg tell Mary that the AOS had a beautiful building here in Delray Beach but when the economy tanked, they closed it!
