Spring Ahead to Flower Shows- Michael Riley

If this is Winter, then Spring Flower Shows must be soon ahead!  Michael Riley, who has seen a few flower shows in his time, will discuss flower shows in general and, specifically show photographic images taken at the Annual Convention of The Gesneriad Society which was held in Philadelphia last July.  We will discuss how flower shows work, why they are important and what can be learned from them.  Michael is a member of Indoor Garden for about 35 years and has participated in many flower shows with a diverse variety of specialized plant organizations, as well as Director of The New York Flower Show in the mid-1990’s.  He judges at the Philadelphia Flower Show and the New England Flower Show in Boston and works with his friends at the Ecuagenera nursery in Ecuador exhibiting and selling orchids and other tropical plant material worldwide.

Doors open at 6pm. Plant Sale 6:45pm. Program begins at 7:10pm
