Upcoming Florida native orchids speaking engagements
Prem
I have three upcoming speaking engagements, presenting my program
'Orchids in
our Backyard: Florida's Wild Orchids'. This program starts by covering
a few
broad topics related to our native orchids (total number,
distribution,
habitats, species which are threatened/endangered/subject to
exploitation)
before launching into a sampling of individual orchid species from
across the
state - some common, some very rare - with a gallery of photos (all
taken by me
in the field) presented for each. This program has been very well
received as I
have presented it at orchid and native plant societies throughout
central and
southern Florida.
* Monday, Feb 8th, I will be speaking at the Central Florida Orchid
Society,
which meets at Leu Gardens, 1920 N. Forest Ave. Orlando, Florida, at
7PM.

Society, which meets at the Volusia County Agricultural Center in
DeLand, FL.

No website listed for this society.
* Thursday, March 11th, I will be speaking at the Tallahassee Orchid
Society, which meets at the Leon County Extension Office, 615 Paul
