Welcome
to
BDOFS.com
The
Beaudesert
Districts
Orchid
and Foliage
Society
(Inc)
The
society was formed on the 23rd March 1982, with the aim of increasing
the awareness of propagating and growing orchids and foliage plants in
the Beaudesert region. This region enjoys a sub-tropical climate,
presenting some challenges to the grower. Summer heat and humidity and
winter cooler temperatures, including frosts, make growing orchids,
foliage plants and gardening generally a challenging but rewarding
hobby or career.
Members travel from as far as the Gold Coast,
Jimboomba, Tamborine, Canungra, Rathdowney and Running Creek, meeting
monthly in a friendly and supportive environment to further the aims
and objectives of the society.
The orchid shown in our logo is the red flowered Dendrobium Kingianum.
This orchid was discovered in the Lamington National Park, and is found
only in a small area in South East Queensland and northern New South
Wales.
If you would like to become a member of the
Beaudesert Districts Orchid and Foliage Society, please download a
membership form here.
Our
sincere thanks to Keer Moriarty, the owner and editor of the
Canungra Times for her advertising
and coverage of our shows.
It is very much appreciated!
