The Cymbidium Orchid Club of South Australia exists to promote the growing and showing of Cymbidium Orchids in South Australia. It is different to all other Orchid Clubs in South Australia, because it is a single orchid genera club. The Club does not sell orchids to the public. Club members sell their plants at the trading tables associated with the annual shows.

Next Meeting

The guest speaker for the November meeting will be Graham Guest, always a knowledgeable and entertaining speaker. The meeting will held at the Burnside Community Centre on the 27th November with the meeting beginning at 8. New members are welcome.

The Club has hosted two extremely successful shows this year: the Winter Show at Port Adelaide Plaza Shopping Centre and the Spring show at West Lakes Shopping Centre.

Previous Meetings

The guest speaker for the October meeting was Norm Martin from Western Australia, who spoke on ‘How I grow orchids in Western Australia’- yet another very interesting presentation!

Guest speaker at our September meeting was Karl Olsen, who produces the website ‘Orchid Wise’. His presentation was both interesting and informative. Do check out his website. Growing and flowering your best Cymbidium orchid yet!

Our August meeting featured Greg Bryant, of Bryant’s Orchids, as guest speaker. His presentation ‘Parentage still counts’ was extremely well received by members.

Associate Professor Randall W. Robinson was the guest speaker at our July meeting and was most informative, speaking about cymbidiums past, present and future.

Glen Heyland, of Easy Orchids, gave a very informative presentation on pests, mites and insecticides at our June meeting. Thank you Glenn- a most interesting session.

Don’t forget the beginner’s group meeting which will start at 7.15pm sharp, on the stage at the front of the hall. Newcomers are very, very welcome. Bring a friend.
