SUMMARY:Keith and Dina Emig
DESCRIPTION:We are delighted to have Keith and Dina Emig\, owners of Winter Haven Orchid Nursery in Winter Haven\, present a program introducing us to flasking and some Vandaceous tips at our 7:30 p.m. meeting on July 8. Keith and Dina grow\, hybridize and register plants in the Oncidium\, Cattleya\, Phalaenopsis\, Vanda\, and Dendrobium alliances\, and have created their own genera (Emigara). They have received more than 45 American Orchid Society awards\, so far\, including nine for their original crosses. Keith’s orchid journey started with a trip to the dentist where\, on the receptionist’s desk\, was a small plant with three leaves and an inflorescence with twenty blooms suspended in a beautifully presented fashion. He learned the dentist was an orchid hobbyist who grew the multifloral Phalaenopsis. It was on. Orchid fever is infectious\, and all possible information and plants were obtained. What resulted was a uncontrollable driving force of endless experimentation to better grow and flower these plants. There is no substitute for the company of other enthusiasts\, with whom to share this fever. Soon the passion of combining the attributes of two beautiful plants\, by cross pollinating\, stimulated his imagination. A flasking case was built\, and has been a fixture in their kitchen for over a decade. More than 1\,000 seed pods have been flasked to date and it seems each season there is some new cross that has more exciting possibilities. Keith’s passion also drew him to the Ridge Orchid Society in Lakeland and the American Orchid Society\, revealing the orchid world’s secrets. Keith has served on the board of directors of the Ridge Orchid Society for more than a decade\, including at least seven terms as president. Be sure to check out Keith’s article “Luck of the Draw” in the March 2017 “Orchids Magazine” (p. 208). \nWe are excited that Keith and Dina will be sharing their growing knowledge\, bringing their plants for our raffle table and selling plants at our meeting.

SUMMARY:April 11 speaker: 20 plants you should grow
DESCRIPTION:Please join us at 7:30 p.m. April 11 to hear our very own FLOS member\, Omar Gonzalez\, speak about “Orchids I Would Grow.” His talk will feature 20 orchid on our raffle table! He will be bringing us these orchids to tell us why these plants are special and trendy\, why he is partial to them and he will share cultural tips on how to grow them well. \nOmar\, who is a long-time orchid society member\, hails from Miami\, but spent time in the Midwest\, attending Northland College in Wisconsin. He has a degree in chemistry and by trade\, is a quality control chemist. Growing up\, Omar always loved all kinds of plants and had a particular interest in growing fruits and vegetables. He found that growing the plants that he had cultivated in the Midwest was somewhat difficult in Miami\, so his interest switched to sub-tropical. He became friendly with David McLean\, the late native plant horticulturist from Broward\, who introduced him to orchids – vanilla\, stanhopea and other species.\nAs Omar’s interest in orchids grew\, he amassed a wealth of knowledge going to shows\, attending meetings and learning as much as he could from local growers. He took a trip to visit his sister in California and extended his travels to Hawaii to meet with Sheldon Takasaki from Carmela Orchids. Omar also volunteered at Bonnet House and has developed an interest in flasking. Currently\, Omar is focusing on Brazilian Cattleyas and orchids of Central America. He is a valued member of the Fort Lauderdale Orchid Society and is eager to share his orchid expertise with all of us.
