Welcome
to the
Gulf Coast Orchid Society website.
We
are a non- profit group, established by
orchid enthusiasts
who share
a
common interest in orchid culture, exhibition,
and the
accumulation and
dissemination of
knowledge pertaining to the care and
perpetuation
of
this
wonderful plant family.
Our
love of orchids is expressed through monthly meetings, where we promote
the hobby
by group
discussions,
education, and programs by a wide range
of speakers.
We also sponsor an AOS
sanctioned Orchid
show and sale, at the Singing
River Mall in Gautier, MS.
To
find out more about our society, you may contact us at:
gladnier@gcorchids.org
Our
meetings are held on the second or third Sunday of each month,
in
the cafeteria on the Jefferson Davis Campus
in Biloxi.
The general
meeting at 2:00.
Our membership
ranges from those just
starting out in this
hobby,
to seasoned
veterans who
have grown
for decades. Visitors
are always
welcome.
