Our next meeting will be on February 20th​, 2021, at the VFW Post 8681 at 18940 Drayton St. in Spring Hill. Come early at 12PM, and the meeting starts at 1:00PM.  Our speaker this month will be Pam Waters, of Orchids In Bloom. She will speak to us about Rhyncostylis gigantea and Rhyncolaelia digbyana. She will have plants for sale.
Pam became interested in orchids in 2005 due to their beauty. She started out in this industry with a lot of love and worked extremely hard to be where she is today. Orchids require a lot of love and a little amount time. They grow into beautiful flowers and bring us happiness and joy. Please visit her and her beautiful orchids at her green house!

Our orchid show needs you! This year’s theme is ORCHID ISLAND and the show will take place March 27th and 28th. We hope to use our combined imaginations to make our display beautiful and memorable. Of course we will need all your blooming plants so get them growing.
 
Currently we are also looking to compile a list of objects that we might use in the display to accent the orchids and fit our theme “Orchid Island”. Things relevant to the theme might include sea shells, sponges, corals, drift wood and rocks. Also, nautical items like fish nets, ship hardware or ropes might also be useful. We are looking to compile a list of these items in advance of the of the show. If you have any of these things and would allow us to borrow them from Friday March 26th  to Sunday March 28th, would you please respond by email or call me with any questions ? jrundell@tampabay.rr.com. 352.503.7858
  
We hope you are all staying safe and healthy, and that your orchids are making your days brighter. Please post some pictures on our Nature Coast Orchid Society Facebook group for all to enjoy! That is also a great place to find the latest news and updates about our society. 
 
 Please pass this information along to others who may not be in our e-mail chain. We will be updating our website, and social media.
 
Best wishes for your continued good health,
 The NCOS Board of Directors



Goals of The Club.
Our aim at Nature Coast Orchid Society is to give orchid lovers an opportunity to share orchid culture and care experience, while educating and entertaining in a social and practical way.  The prime objective is to acquaint our members with the diversity of orchid species and encourage the acquisition of rare and endangered varieties for preservation and enjoyment of future generations.





Monthly meetings are held at the VFW Post 8681 at 18940 Drayton Street in Spring Hill. The Post is on the corner of Drayton Street and County Line Road, on the Pasco side.
​
We encourage anyone in the tri-county area around Spring Hill to come and visit one of our meetings. We meet the 3rd Saturday of each month at 1:00 pm. You don't need a reservation, just show up at any meeting for a free visit. You will find the Nature Coast Orchid Society a wealth of information You may be an experienced grower or just have a curiosity about orchids, either way you will find the club to be fun, helpful, friendly and educational.
 In addition to regular monthly meetings, with knowledgeable speakers, the Club sponsors tours of tri-county growers and over night travel to international shows, greenhouses and lectures. We also have a yearly orchid Festival, a Christmas Luncheon, an orchid
Auction and an annual picnic.
