Fragrant Orchids


The beautiful blooms of Brassolaeliocattleya Owen Holmes 'Cloud Forest' offer a light fragrance.
			An expert grower of many kinds of plants from around the world, Ms. Becker will share her knowledge of Orchids, a group that can be challenging for the home gardener. You'll learn about fragrant varieties and general culture, and have time to ask questions. A selection of Orchids and accessories will be available for purchase. Limited to 40 participants. This event has passed for this spring season.
