The Society's display is completed and ready for a visit by HM The Queen during the show's preview on Monday. Most of the plants on display have been grown and lent by members of the Society and once again, members have volunteered their time and expertise to create a vibrant and joyful showcase for the orchids.
Orchids from around the world are featured in colourful groupings, designed to complement each other and the overall display. On display are plants such as a one and a half metre tall Phragmipedium Les Dirouilles; the ever-popular scarlet Masdevallia veitchiana; Maxillaria shepheardii with around 300 flowers; Anguloa uniflora in a pot the size of a dustbin and of course, striking Phalaenopsis hybrids - instantly recognisable to all and a splendid way to begin a love affair with the orchid family..
