Come early for the best selection. These are guaranteed to go fast.

Volunteers Needed for Spring Show

Volunteers are the life-blood for all society events and this is no exception! No experience required; we need your help! I would like to thank all the people who have already signed up to help. Many key positions have already been filled, however I still need quite a few people on Saturday and Sunday to sell the plants, wrap them, bag them, and take money.

If you are willing to donate some of your time to benefit your society, please email: webmaster@DenverOrchidSociety.org . This is a great way to get to know other Denver Orchid Society members and get the most out of your society membership.

We Need Your Blooming Orchids

Please consider bringing your beautiful blooming plants for use in the DOS exhibit. You can drop off your plants on Friday during show setup. If you plan to enter your orchid(s) for ribbon judging you must register your own plant on Friday (we will be happy to assist). Orchids must remain in the exhibit until 4:00 pm on Sunday. If you have never previously exhibited a plant, be prepared for a fun, exciting, and very rewarding experience!
