IT’S PEAK orchid flowering season, so the world’s favourite exotic plants will put on a great show at the Geelong Orchid and Indoor Plant Club this weekend.
The club’s annual Spring Show is at Christ Church Hall on the corner of Moorabool and McKillop streets from 10am to 4pm both days.
For those tempted to take on the task of cultivating the specimens, there will also be plant sales, potting demonstrations and club members only too pleased to answer any questions.
