Next Meeting: Thursday 13th April 7:30pm
Bad
Plants. Bad Plants.*
Whatcha Gonna Do?
Whatcha Gonna Do When They Happen to You?
By
Ja-Rule Olivas & Ice KB
Fresh from the
Parole Office, Ice-KB (leader of the Thrips gang) rejoins
Ja-Rule Olivas (infamous leader of the Buds) to discuss
"Why Oh Why Can't I?" Grow orchids, that
is.
What you need to do:
Bring us your bad plants. Your tired, your weak, your
orchids yearning to
breathe free... oops - wrong speech.
[ahem.]
Bring in the orchids you've been having trouble with and we'll
discuss ways
to improve their culture. Not some theoretical orchid
growing in
conditions from some far away land (like Florida). YOUR
orchid, YOUR
conditions. C'Mon! Even Dave Tomassini has a
bad plant or two, so don't
be shy! After all, how can we help you if we can't see
what you're doing?
Ribbons will be given to those with the worst plants (ie the
opposite of
the way we usually hand out ribbons.) And there'll be a
drawing for prizes
(but with a catch!)
Any plants with bugs or diseases PLEASE bring them in a
plastic bag so as
not to contaminate other plants.
Raffle
table plants have been supplied by the judges from the Pacific
Central Judging Center. Some choice stuff there.
The
speakers dinner will be at Suwa's Japanese Restaurant, 2151
Todos Santos Park, Concord.
Phone number 925-825-3201 We will
meet there at 5:30 PM. For those interested in
dining with Kathy and Dennis please join us. Please call
Eileen Jackson at 707-642-5915 by April 11, so reservations
can be made.
