ORCHIDS are known for vibrant colours and rich fragrance. A cosmopolitan plant, they can be found in almost every habitat on earth, including the Goulburn Valley where the Goulburn Valley Orchid Club will hold its Autumn Spectacular this May.
There will be the most beautiful orchids in Northern Victoria on show plus expert growers available to give advice and for potting demonstrations. Patrons can buy their own orchids, hand-crafted ironworks for the garden and orchid-growing accessories on the day, with multiple retailers present.
“It doesn’t matter if you have one orchid or even none, the show is all about having people enjoy the beautiful orchids and their fragrances. When you walk into the show, you can’t help but say, ‘Oh, wow!’ People are always so surprised by how many different types and colours there are,” said Goulburn Valley Orchid Club president, Chris Ibbotson.
This year’s Autumn Spectacular will be held at the Mooroopna Mechanics Hall, at 41 McLennan Street, Mooroopna on Saturday, May 17, 9am to 4pm and Sunday, May 18, 10am to 3pm.
$5 entry for adults, children under 14 free, the Autumn Spectacular has something for everyone.
