    Monthly Meeting - Orchids of Ecuador


    This past November, NHOS President Daryl Yerdon and other members of our society traveled to Ecuador to view orchids in the wild. 


    Daryl will present an overview of their small group trip to Ecuador including photos of orchids in their natural growing environment plus other aspects of this stunningly beautiful and diverse country. Included will be orchids and photos of our travels to several high elevation cloud forests, lower-level tropical rain forests and everything in between. You will come away with an appreciation for beautiful Ecuador (4000+ species of orchids!) and importantly, the in-situ conditions that many of your favorite orchids and aroids grow in. Please bring your questions!


    Please have your plants on the show table by 11 a.m.

     

    Lunch is potluck so please consider bringing a dish to share if you are able to.

    Monthly Meeting - What Is A Beth Plant: Welcome to the Weird, Wacky, World of Orchids


    Beth Davis from Waldor Orchids will be our guest speaker. If you spent any time in the greenhouses at Waldor Orchids, you might hear the phrase "that is a Beth plant". Beth Davis will talk about “What is a Beth Plant?”

The website at www.waldor.com has a partial selection of available plants so please contact Beth with anything you are looking for and it may just be available. If there is a plant on your wish list, just email Beth at linwoodorchid@gmail.com to see if she has it.

    Dr. Kristen Uthus, owner of New World Orchids, will speak on a topic to be announced.


    Dr. Kristen Uthus studied both plant and animal ecology and evolution at Virginia Commonwealth University and The Ohio State University.  She has taught biology and ecology at several colleges including the University of Michigan and Eastern Michigan University.  Kristen has been growing orchids for over 20 years, but recently fulfilled a lifelong dream to make orchids a full-time commitment by purchasing New World Orchids from Dr. Glenn Lehr.  Although she enjoys growing many varieties of orchids and other plants, New World Orchids specializes in Japanese species including Neofinetia falcataDendrobium moniliformeSederia japonica, as well as Asian Cymbidium species. 


    Kristen is supported in these pursuits by her husband, Dr. Kevin Wehrly, her two sons, Henry and Gus, and a veritable menagerie of loving animals.


    Please have your plants on the show table by 11 a.m.


    Lunch is pot luck so please bring a dish to share.
