Welcome
to East Everglades Orchid Society’s new year of Ribbon Judging. We
have some helpful tips to help make your participation in ribbon judging more
pleasant. The judges will be
more inclined to give higher scores if orchids are cleaned and blooms are
staked up for a more pleasing presentation. After you fill out your entry
form, please go socialize with your friends, so our judges can get to work
and finish judging and let them enjoy the program. Judging starts
at promptly 7:30. Thank
you very much for your cooperation and help to make our Judging Program so popular and successful. If you find an error in the posting of the awards, please email
the Judging Chairperson of the problem at rpalms@bellsouth.net as soon as
possible so it can be corrected.
You might THINK spring is here and your plants will never get cold, but…. We’ve seen some pretty chilly
weather, even into the beginning of March! Don’t let your guard down, we’ve had a false winter, and
it’s not over until the birds start migrating north! We’ve had an unusually warm winter
and you might find some orchids blooming now that normally bloom in February
or March. It’s been very warm so
far, but it’s better than being too cold!
