Our Annual Holiday Party was a festive and delicious way to celebrate the season together! Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the day so much fun.
A few highlights from the celebration:
Janice Bartlett won the candy jar guessing game, coming within one of the total, and also took home Judge’s Choice for her beautiful orchid. Posted in the gallery here, for all to enjoy.
Walter Bryant was the lucky winner of the orchid raffle basket.
All of our stunning orchid centerpieces were silent-auctioned off to happy members.
From the food to the flowers, it was truly a joyful time for all.
Below are a few photos from the Holiday Party. And don’t forget to visit the NEW Bloom Table Gallery, where you can continue admiring the incredible blooms from our members. Including the December Bloom Table
Looking Ahead: January Meeting 🌱
After the New Year, mark your calendars for our January meeting (Tuesday, 01.27.2026) featuring speaker Bill Nunez, also known as The Rhizome Cowboy.
Bill will give a short, informative talk on orchid seedlings, and every member will receive their own seedling to pot, with all materials provided at the meeting. He will also have plants available for purchase. Please note: cash or checks only (no credit cards).
We look forward to kicking off the new year together and can’t wait to see everyone soon!
