When it’s your first orchid rodeo, proper care can feel like a daunting task.

This class will cover the basics of orchid care, focusing on Phalaenopsis. We’ll start with care tips and learn the nuts and bolts of repotting, then we’ll practice what we’ve learned! All participants will repot a Phalaenopsis and take home their freshly-potted plant.

Age: Adult, youth 12 years & over with adult*

*Accompanying adults not participating in the program do not need to register, but will pay the regular admission rate at check in.
