Successful weekend for 3rd Durham Orchid Show

The OSGB was pleased to support the 3rd Durham Orchid show last weekend by staging an educational display and co-ordinating the plant judging. Many thanks for the warm welcome and to all our members who visited the show.

The Society was most grateful to those who lent plants for the display, in particular Sue Lane who offered her unusual Dimorphorchis rossii 'Sue', which formed the centrepiece of the display and was awarded a Botanical Certificate by the RHS Orchid Committee .

Around 1,500 visitors  enjoyed displays by seven societies, four of them affiliated to the OSGB, and were able to browse through a good selection of orchids offered by a wide range of traders.

The 4th Durham Orchid Show will be staged as a one-day show on 7th September 2014.
