Just as artists explore the interplay of color and form when creating new works of art, orchid breeders use the tools of selective breeding to create new works of art in the orchid world.  The use of color by artistic masters will be compared to modern orchid breeders use of newly discovered orchids to expand the color pallet of orchids. The talk will conclude with guidelines for caring for your “Trader Joe’s” orchid and how to get your orchids to re-bloom. A fun talk about orchids as works of art.

Ed Lysek has been growing orchids for 40 years. As VP of Five Cities Orchid Society he frequently conducts orchid growing talks at local plant nurseries, wineries and garden clubs. His collection of over 700 orchids grow in his Templeton greenhouse and there is never a day when there are not several if not dozens of orchids in bloom.
