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.
A list of prize winners at our 2010 Autumn Show will be posted when available. Photos
of the major prize winning orchids and foliage plants will be posted on
our Photo Gallery page as soon as they are available. .
