February 11, 2026. Speaker David Fiaschetti gave an amazingly thorough talk: How to grow, care for and maintain Orchid. It was a very graphic power point presentation. Each slide of the talk was photographed. Only a few slides are shown here. However, if anyone want the page-by-page program contact me and I will email it.
