March. 3, 2025 Meeting – Spring Show Prep

M ake sure you don’t slip on the ice (!) as you remind yourself that Spring is not that far away here in the Rochester area. At this month’s in-person meeting, we’ll be going over orchid show preparation: volunteering, some plant registration, display building, staging plants for a display, what judges look for in flowers, and a repotting demonstration.

If you would like to participate in the repotting demo, bring one plant of your orchids and your own potting materials for a “teachable moment.” We love hands-on learning and look forward to sharing this with you.

For volunteering at the show, our Signup Genius page is online here  and a physical paper copy of all signup sheets will also will be available at the meeting.

Our meeting place is at the Louis S. Wolk JCC of Greater Rochester, 1200 Edgewood Ave, Rochester, NY, 14618. Doors open at 6:00 p.m. and we’ll get the meeting underway at 6:30 p.m.

If your orchids are in bloom, bring them to the meeting for our Show Table! They’ll be great for demonstrating how to stage plants for the show.
