How to Repot, Divide, and Mount Orchids Master Class - FREE AOS Webinar

As a taste for all - including non-AOS members, the first module presented on How to Repot, Divide, and Mount Orchids will be shown on Tuesday, July 16.  There will be a live Q&A session following this broadcast. This should make for a vibrant introduction into series. Registration for this webinar should be up on the website in the next week or two:  Webinars - American Orchid Society (aos.org). Then, for AOS members only, all other modules will be made available via the AOS website.

Six modules were created and presented by AOS members in the fall of 2023:                        

  • “Introduction to Orchids” – Barb Schmidt
