Advanced Orchid Care with Melana Davison
DATE: Saturday 9/13/25 TIME: 10:30am - 1:30pm
Join Melana Davison as she guides South Florida orchid growers in taking their skills to the next level. Building on her popular beginners’ series, this class explores how to divide orchids, grow thriving specimen plants, and discover unique and unusual varieties to expand your collection.
Orchids are not harder to grow than other plants. They are simply different.
This class is best suited for students with at least a basic understanding of orchid care. For beginner-friendly options, please stay tuned for updates on Melana’s introductory classes.
