Red Stick Orchid Growers 

This version of the group invites all members and non members to attend during the day at the Goodwood pubic Library.  The meetings are held on the fourth (4th) Thursday of the month at 10 a.m. and cover a wide variety of information about Orchids.  There is no cost to join so come and learn.

Some of our Favorite Orchids.

Growing Orchids can be very rewarding. These are my two favorite cattleya orchids.  In fact, a local artist used the top photo to paint the image on the hood pad of my Corvette. 

I joined BROS in 2016 and knew nothing about orchids.  I found that with some orchid research and patience I was able to grow and bloom these plants in Baton Rouge.  Must admit I lost my fair share of plants along the educational path but when you finally put the cultural pieces together it can be very rewarding.  Jim Morrison BROS.
