GROS Annual Orchid Show
GROS Annual Orchid Show
2026 - Our 50th Annual Show!
The GROS is hosting our 50th Annual Spring Orchid Show at the Eisenhart Auditorium of the Rochester Museum & Science Center from April 17-19. We’re excited to bring together an unusually large group of exhibitors and vendors this year to give you a chance to see one of the most extensive displays of orchids seen locally in many years.
A typical orchid show display!
Our Meetings
The Genesee Region Orchid Society (GROS) is a 501(c) non-profit organization based in Rochester, NY.
Our regular meeting night is the first Monday following the first Sunday of each month. We occasionally change the meeting date as our schedule requires, but we always list the correct date well in advance both on this website and in our monthly newsletter. Our meetings are open to everyone without charge – feel free to attend and find out what our Society is all about!
Meetings typically consist of a brief business meeting to conduct our club’s routine activities, a special presentation on an orchid subject, an orchid raffle (2 tickets for $1), and a Show Table where members can display their flowering plants for everyone to see. For more information, please contact any of our officers.
