- January 5th - Orchid RX - Find out what your orchid needs to bloom and thrive. If you have a plant that has not been doing well you may need to learn more about it's culture. Bring in plants you have that need help. Find out if it's a matter of light, temperature or moisture that may be the culprit.
- February 2nd - Growing Orchids Under Lights - Confused about Lumens footcandles? Not sure if you have enough light coming in your NE-facing window? Want to learn how other members are growing successfully under lights? We'll have tips and photos to help you understand or improve your setup.

ANNUAL PLANT SWAP-Members are encouraged to bring clean, bug free and healthy orchid plants to donate to the swap. These can be plants you bought and then couldn't figure out why... Plants you divided, plants you're not growing well and want to give a chance to live... Anything! The key is that they are clean and insect/disease free.

Bring them along, put them on the table with all the others, and when your number is drawn, you get to pick a plant from all on the table.
This is an excellent way to add to your collection, as well as perhaps try a genera you are unfamiliar with, and not sure you can grow. Members donate some pretty incredible plants to this, so you are almost guaranteed not to go away disappointed! Non-members are welcome but you need to bring a plant to participate in the plant swap.
- NO MEETINGS JULY & AUGUST
- December
Annual Holiday Party and Gift Exchange-Potluck party with a great gift exchange. Always a blast. Bring a wrapped orchid-related gift with a value of at least $15-20 and dish or drinks to share.
