president's message

March 2025

Dear OSSC Members,

I hope you are well! Last month it was so great to be back in person and see you all again in person. I was so impressed to see so many large and impressive plants brought in by members at our meeting. There is so much talent in our society and I am very much hoping to see more plants brought to future meetings.

This month Carol Klonowski will talk on summer blooming phalaenopsis. These species are unlike what you see in the supermarkets that bloom in the winter. Summer blooming phals are compact, fragrant, intensely colorful and can stay in bloom for long periods of time. They belong in every collection and her talk is not to be missed! I look forward to seeing you all.

James
