The Cape Orchid Society’s Autumn Show: Disas and Diamonds

Help the Cape Orchid Society celebrate 60 years of fabulous flora!

Autumn is here, so now should be a good time to get a distraction from those sad wilting leaves. Join the Cape Orchid Society from Friday, 7 April to Sunday, 9 April 2017, as it celebrates 60 years of orchid culture and conservation in the Cape through its Autumn show Disas and Diamonds: The COS Diamond Jubilee Show. The show will be taking place in the John Winter Hall at the Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden at 9am daily.

WHAT TO EXPECT AT THE 2017 CAPE ORCHID SOCIETY’S AUTUMN SHOW: DISAS AND DIAMONDS AT KIRSTENBOSCH NATIONAL BOTANICAL GARDEN

Look forward to beautiful, rare and unique flowers that your eyes have not seen before. South Africa’s oldest orchid society will be commemorating 60 years in the industry through a visual recollection of their journey through their six decades of existence – right at the start from their humble yet eager initiation dating back to the 1950s and then delving into their present and what may lay ahead for them in the future.

Looking to decorate your home with some flora? Then going to this celebration will be an excellent choice for you as there’ll be an array of pretty petals and unique orchids to purchase, ranging from national to international growers. This is a great opportunity to get that wonderful pot-plant for your windowsill, that floral stand for your patio or just some more greenery for your home.

There will also be daily presentations and demonstrations happening at the show that will be hosted at 11am and 2pm each day from Friday, 7 April, to Sunday, 9 April 2017.

This show promises to be a multisensorial experience for the whole family so make sure you’re there!
