Everything you need to know about orchids

Orchids are amazing plants. There are over 28,000 orchid species known, and more than 100,000 hybrids. With just a little knowledge, orchids can be surprisingly easy to grow.

The Society has some broad aims, namely:

  • To promote the cultivation of orchids 
  • To hold shows and displays in order to promote orchids 
  • To provide education and knowledge for all members regarding the general and specific aspects of orchid culture, 
  • To provide from time to time, social events for the enjoyment of all members

Meetings may feature:

  • Guest speakers
  • Plants for sale 
  • Competitions

Members are encouraged to bring plants to sell at meetings. Please ensure that plants are healthy and free of pests, diseases and weeds and that they are labelled and priced. If plants have come directly out of a glass house or tunnel house they should be labelled as such. The Society does not take a commission for plants sold at General Meetings. However, they would be most appreciative if those participating would contribute something to the raffle. Cuttings and free plants are also available from time to time.

South Eastern Orchid Society of W.A meets every third Tuesday of the month at the Cannington Exhibition Centre.
