Tonight's Program:
Will Riley
Landscaping With Orchids In A Natural Setting

Will Riley

Will has been growing plants all his life with the specific interest in orchids developing for the last twenty years. "Escaping" a farming and ranching background in the desert of West Texas, he pursued the doctorate in Medical Microbiology and Immunology at Emory University in Atlanta. Realizing he could not truly escape his heritage he became a Master Gardener and a serious interest in the tropicals followed.


Pursuit of his career opened the doors of South Florida and the orchid world. Within the clubs and show committees of South Dade, he met his wife Bonnie, who shares equally his avid interest in orchids. Both he and his wife are accredited American Orchid Society judges. Will is currently the judging chairman of the West Palm Beach Judging Center and an AOS Trustee. He and Bonnie live in a natural hammock in the Redland area of South Dade. They have an area reserved for landscaped tropicals, water garden and a 40' x 60' greenhouse. Their collection of several thousand plants is always subject to change.

The mini class will be replaced with a short presentation on the EEOS web site by our webmaster Fred Armando.

 




Come and join us as we explore this wonderful group of plants.
