1:00 Presentation: Paphiopedilum Care
Ramnarine John Burdee was born in Trinidad and migrated to Florida some years ago. In Trinidad he grew many different types of orchids and took part in collecting and showing at many shows, but there was always something more. Although he still wanted to grow and flower them, he wanted to learn more about orchids, wanted more of a challenge.
So when he came to Florida, he got involved with orchids on a different level. Here he was able to grow all of those types of plants he could only read about and even meet all of those people that grew and wrote the articles that he had read about in AOS magazines.

WHO WE ARE
About Us
In 2024,our meetings will be on the 3rd Monday of every month at 1:00 p.m. at the Port St. Lucie Botanical Gardens except for:
April (Annual Picnic)
July and August (Summer Break)
December (Holiday Luncheon).
Our meetings are venues for information sharing and interaction with professional growers and speakers as well as classes. Meetings include “Show and Tell” for members to show off their blooming orchids, raffles, orchid exchanges, and refreshments. Meetings frequently include an educational workshop starting at noon. We have an annual picnic, holiday luncheon, and a large orchid show. which is sanctioned and judged by the American Orchid Society.
Membership is open to anyone who has an interest in orchids, regardless of an individual's level of expertise. We believe that we should "pay it forward," taking what has been taught to us and sharing our knowledge with others, both within the Society and with the general public.
We invite you to join us and learn about orchids.
If you’re a member of our Facebook group, post pictures of your blooming orchids (https://www.facebook.com/groups/PSLOS/).
