WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF JOINING?

  • Learn How to Grow Orchids
    If you want to learn how to grow orchids, there’s no better way to do it! South Carolina Orchid Society meetings feature programs by leading experts on a variety of orchids or orchid related topic and a show table full of beautiful orchids in bloom. There is also a lending library with useful and hard-to-find books and other publications. Plus- a wealth of knowledge from the experiences of all our members.
  • Meet Other Orchid Growers
    At each meeting, you will have the opportunity to meet other orchid growers, many of whom are beginners. Some of our members are experts themselves and have lectured or written on orchids. Others are also photographers, artists, and floral designers interested in orchids!

    The South Carolina Orchid Society organizes and annual orchid show in Columbia, SC and we have social gatherings throughout the year.
