2 President s report Well. Well. Well. What can I say about our Winter show at Glenrose Shopping Centre? Roaring success certainly comes to mind. It s always difficult doing a show at a new location because there are so many unknowns, but thanks to the amazing work done by the committee we pulled it off and I think this will be a great show, hopefully for years to come. Thanks also to everyone that volunteered their time to come and help out, it is greatly appreciated, and congratulations to the champions. Which brings me to a very important point. We are now headed into our busiest time of the year. Orchids by the Sea, St. Ives Orchid Fair and then our Spring show at Dee Why Grand. I love the fact that we have such a hard working committee. The amount of work that goes on behind the scenes to make these shows happen is huge, but unfortunately, it always falls on too few people. This year, particularly for Orchids by the Sea we will need a lot of help. Most importantly on the Friday and Saturday to help staff the door and sales area. These shows are great for our society. They are great for our members and they are the reason we can raise money to give back to the community. If we don t get the help they don t happen, so please, if you have any spare time over the three days come down and help out. Especially if you plan on selling plants, try to put in the time to be there and help sell. I look forward to seeing you all again soon Dylan GUEST SPEAKER. There will be a culture class with a potting demonstration. Please feel free to bring in any problem plants for the experts to give an opinion. SUPPER Our supper volunteers this month are Yann and Hidetoshi for sandwiches and Ros Mathews for something sweet. Thank you to those who brought in something extra for the supper table last month. NEW MEMBER Welcome to Penny Johnson from Belrose and Ian McKenzie from Frenchs Forest. We hope you enjoy your time with us. Members please make them feel welcome and show them the ropes. LIBRARY. The library still operates so please make use of this facility as we have some very good books. SALES TABLE. There are pots in all sizes available and also plant labels. You are welcome to bring in your excess plants for sale. Bulletin Articles The Ed is always on the lookout for news articles so if you have anything to buy, sell or tell please contact Tinka July ORCHIDS IN THE FOOTHILLS July 26 th Member s Meeting August 3,4,5 Orchids by the Sea August 17,18,19 St. Ives Fair August 23 rd Member s Meeting September 13,14,15 Spring the Dee Why Grand September 27 th AGM & Member s Meeting October 25 th Member s Meeting November 18 th Auction November 22 nd Members Meeting December 2 nd Christmas Party December 20 th Member s Meeting Specie Plant of the Evening Grown by C. Polis Cattleya trianae var. backhouseana This plant had great fresh flowers, with very vivid colour. It also went on to win champion at our winter show (or at least another plant of the same thing).another great example of a great grower doing what they do best. In November 1936, Cattleya trianae was chosen as the national flower of Colombia, where it is endemic. It was chosen as the flower that best represents Colombia due to the high diversity of orchids and the fact that the type flower has yellow, blue and red on the lip similar to the

Colombian flag. Like many Cattleyas, its natural habitat is as an epiphyte in cloud forests and in the wild is now critically endangered due to habitat destruction.

Nurthen Paphiopedilum Orchilla Chilton' Great to see Rod take out champion hybrid after his informative talk the meeting before on exactly these plants complex Paphiopedilum hybrids.

This plant had the most beautiful colours through it, particularly the shades of purple through the dorsal sepal, and this photo under the hall lights doesn t do it justice.

If anyone is interested, I can highly recommend joining the Paph society; a chance to learn from and see plants grown by some of the best growers in the country.

3 Colombian flag. Like many Cattleyas, its natural habitat is as an epiphyte in cloud forests and in the wild is now critically endangered due to habitat destruction. Hybrid Plant of the Evening Grown by R. Nurthen Paphiopedilum Orchilla Chilton' Great to see Rod take out champion hybrid after his informative talk the meeting before on exactly these plants complex Paphiopedilum hybrids. Just goes to show he knows exactly what he was talking about. This plant had the most beautiful colours through it, particularly the shades of purple through the dorsal sepal, and this photo under the hall lights doesn t do it justice. After seeing the interest from our members at Rods talk, I would love to see more people growing these. If anyone is interested, I can highly recommend joining the Paph society; a chance to learn from and see plants grown by some of the best growers in the country. Specimen Plant of the Evening Grown by R. Lumby Bulbophyllum shephardii (syn. crassulifolium) Whilst individually the flowers on this may not be spectacular, by god were the 3 plants of this benched thumping specimens!!! And not the usual unruly giants that take up half a table either. Compact, incredibly grown and very well flowered; everything to look for in a good specimen plant. One of these also went on to win champion at the winter show. Like most of the Australian Bulbos, despite small flowers they put on a great display! Novice Plant of the Evening Grown by M. & S. Howard Oncidium Twinkle Fragrant Fantasy' Oncidium Twinkle in its many varieties and progeny has really become a mainstay of the orchid world and I think will be around for some time to come. Again, (being best grown into a specimen plant) these are exactly what to look for. Compact, floriferous and fast to grow into a big plant, it s great to see most of our novices growing these now in some shape or form. Well done Michael and Sheree.
