THANK YOU’S
Thanks go to Norito Hasegawa for his highly informative presentation
last month and for supplying plants for our Raffle table.
Our Newell’s Nursery fundraiser raised approximately $113.00 for our
society coffers, thanks to Jamie and Doreen and to all those who helped
with the event. Good Job!
Thanks to Sandy Collins for her generous donation to Penny Pines. We
now have the funds for yet another plantation of seedlings.

Thanks for Showing Your Orchids
There were 52 orchids shown at the Redlands Horticulture
and Improvement Society Flower Show. I personally want
to thank the Orchid Society for participating in the show. I
cannot tell you how excited I was to see 52 orchids entered in the show.
I thank all the members that could bring plants and Karin Cleary-Rose
for helping with acceptance and placement. The Orchid
Society members who won were Jim Wheeler, Award of Merit (the top award in
the orchid section) for his Cattleya, Jim Gilman and
Joe Kles for best of class for their Dendrobium and Phalaenopsis and Dan
Dunst for the any other orchid entry. Dan is also to
be congratulated for a first place for his floral design which took the ERSI
Theme Award for the entire show. We did have questions
and were able to inform people about the Orchid Society.
Thanks again.
