Join us as Melana Daivson gives South Florida orchid growers the knowledge and skills they need to successfully grow and bloom orchids in their homes and gardens. 

In the second class of the series, we introduce additional orchid genera that you can grow easily in South Florida. We also discuss more advanced concepts including media choice, nutritional needs, pest management and other topics.

Orchids are not any harder to grow than any other plants, just different!

This ticket admits one for only the second class of the series. Previous classes are not prerequisites for subsequent classes.
