MARIBYRNONG ORCHID SOCIETY WINTER SHOW FOR 2008
We had a good turnout to see our 2008 Winter Orchid Show, despite the cold. There were some fantastic Winter flowerers. As well as our member's orchid displays, refreshments, plant sales and orchid accessory sales and a raffle were all a part of the weekend.
Here are some photos that were taken at the show.

Members displays show great diversity and creativity in their individual displays
The show tables display an impressive array of orchids in bloom
This Paphiopedilum villosum was one of many plants to win multiple sections
Cymbidiums, natives and exotics happily sit side by side
Healthy plants as far as the eye can see
The plants spark much discussion between members and visitors
Members also displayed skill in their floral art arrangements
Refreshments were available for those who needed to recharge their batteries
Sales plants were tempting for anyone wishing to add to their collections, or start a new one
