Everyone delighted at our successful British orchid Congress. Growing good plants is all down to the hard work and commitment of the volunteers of the Orchid Project past and present.

 We have recently moved to brown paper bags for our orchid sales (modelled here by one of today’s customers) – well received and ideal for safe packing of plants.
