Well done and congratulations to the winners! You all did very wellindeed. Now it’s time to prepare your orchids for the upcoming spring show in September. Thank you to all of our members who were able to help out at the winter show, without the help from our members it would not have been possible to have such a successful show. The orchids were stunning and made the show a success. The public were most amazed and delighted with our show. We sold out of all the plants we had available for sale. Please let Ron Panting know if you will be able to help out with setting up the spring show.
