“ Mounting Orchids Can Be Fun ”
Guest Speaker:  Bill & Hilda Takamatsu
 

Bill and Hilda Takamatsu are true orchid lovers, they are around orchids 7 days a week and are employed at H & R Nursery in Waimanalo.  As long time WOS members, they are always willing to share their knowledge of orchid culture with us. They even hybridized an orchid that’s named Den. “Bill Takamatsu”.  We are in for a treat, since most of us grow orchids in pots or hanging baskets.   Bill and Hilda will be showing us how to mount orchids on wood and tree bark.  Tell us why certain orchids grow better this way, ways to hang them up in your green house, how to care for them and how to decide which type of wood or bark best fits the orchid.  Hopefully, some of us will pick up a tip or two and be able to grow and nurture them, to showcase it at our 2011 WOS Spring show.
