Learn how you can grow exquisite orchids as houseplants and pot up one to take home. By applying the proper cultural techniques to vigorous orchid varieties, you can grow these exotic plants in your home or greenhouse and have them flourish. Beth will review orchid growing supplies nutritional requirements, grooming techniques, and pest and disease control. She will demonstrate how to pot a bare-root plant. You will then pot up your own beautiful orchid. Additional plants will be available for sale at the end of the workshop. Beth is a third generation orchid grower. If you have an orchid that is not thriving, bring it to class and Beth will offer suggestions for how to make it grow better.
