The Sacramento Orchid Society was founded in 1947 as an educational organization dedicated to providing information on the cultivation of orchids to the greater Sacramento community.
|
The Society's very active membership grows an almost unimaginable number of orchid species and hybrids on windowsills, patios, in yards, under lights and in greenhouses.
Monthly Meetings feature expert speakers from around the world, opportunities for members to sell plants to one another, a raffle of plants, and a delightful measure of fellowship and good times.
All are welcome. You do not have to be a member to attend our meetings. You are welcome as a guest. Meetings are FREE and there's plenty of free parking.
