September 26, 2011 - Sept Monthly Member's Meeting

We had demonstration by Mel and Edwin on planting and repotting, as well as hands-on training for all the participants.  Great fun!  Also, fantastic refreshments for the intermission - thank you!

Opening with AOC president Calvin

Meeting starting - serious orchid faces

Mel talking orchid - so much to learn from!

Dave's Honohono flask on sale for $20 - what a deal!!  Another great benefit only for club members.

We love orchids...
