“This is the season for the blooming of Australian native orchids from the large Dendrobium Speciosum (Rock Orchids) to the miniature Dendrobium Kingianum with vivid yellow to dark red flowers,” said Show Coordinator John Matthews.

“Also in bloom will be Oncidium, Cymbidium and various other hybrid and species of orchids from Australia, Asian and South American heritage.”

Potting demonstrations will be held at 10.30am on both days.

A sales table for orchids, bromeliads and foliage plants will be available with growing notes for the cultivation of orchids from the coast to the hinterland.

The presentation of awards will be on Sunday at 2.30pm.
