You will have the opportunity to view and purchase some of the highest quality orchids available in the world. Many of these plants' superior breeding grants them blooms that have won awards or have the potential to do so. In other cases you will find exceptionally well grown species orchids in an authentic form just as you would find them growing in their native habitat.
Friday, June 1st - PREVIEW NIGHT - 5:30pm-9:30pm
This is your very first opportunity to purchase rare and exotic orchids before they are made available to the public on Saturday and Sunday. This event is for the serious collector. There will be a $13.00 admission fee to our Orchid Conservation Benefit Reception, of which $10.00 is a donation to support the Orchid Conservation Alliance. On this evening the show vendors "pay the tax" so the more you spend the more you'll save. Winchester Mystery House Mansion Tours will be available until 7:00pm where you can see special orchid displays throughout the house.
Saturday, June 2nd - 9am – 6pm
Sunday, June 3rd – 10am – 5pm
FREE ADMISSION to the expo Saturday & Sunday
Beginner Orchid Growing Skill Sessions will occur about every hour throughout the day. The themes will vary based on the specific grower's specialty area. Remember that your objective is not just to purchase an orchid but also to learn how to grow it so it will thrive under your care. We want to encourage you to do your homework so we are offering you the chance to win a free orchid if you make a purchase and then attend an entire orchid growing skill session. The opportunity orchid drawing will occur at the end of each skill session. These skill sessions are instructed by the orchid experts themselves and will give you the knowledge you need to be successful in your orchid growing endeavors. You must be present at the skill session to win the opportunity orchid drawing.
