| Andy's Orchids Speaker Coming to Charlottesville June 14, 2009 |
| As part of our interest in working more closely with our sister Orchid Societies in the Piedmont area, The Charlottesville Orchid Society is pleased to invite all members of our sister Orchid Societies to our monthly meeting Sunday June 14, 2009, 2PM at the Church of Our Saviour, 1165 E. Rio Road, Charlottesville, Va 22901. |
| The talk for our June meeting will be presented by Harry Phillips of Andy's Orchids (Orchids on a Stick) 734 Ocean View, Encinitas California (outside San Diego). He will be speaking to us about Mounted Orchids and Miniatures. Harry will tour us through many rare orchid species from every corner of the globe and also show us how to adopt these epiphytic orchids into our home and grow them on a mounted hardwood stick, more like they grow in their natural habitats. Such orchids have their roots freely exposed to water and air as in nature, and never need reporting, and are next to impossible to overwater. |
| Because of this special meeting with a well-known long distant speaker, Andy's Orchids is offering to sell plants in advance with a discount if they are selected from the website and ordered prior to Harry Phillip's arrival in Charlottesville. Shipment of the consolidated order would go directly to Pine Crest Nursery in Charlottesville and arrive just before the June 14 meeting date. Contact point for any individual order can be made to Larry Eicher, CHAOS program director at tuzlu@comcast.net or 434 975-4231. Ordering Information: Please go to the Andy's Orchid website to choose the plant(s) you wish to order. Total the cost of the orchid(s) that you wish and write a check for that amount. Please Note: Shipping will be free courtesy of Andy's Orchids. |
| Checks can be mailed directly to 808 King William Drive, Charlottesville, VA 22901 and should be made payable to "CHAOS". Larry will then consolidate these individual orders into one single Group Order and submit that information directly to Andy's Orchids. Based on the total order received in advance, either a 5% discount for consolidated orders of $200 or less, or 10% discount for a consolidated order of $500 or more will then be calculated with refunds distributed to individual purchasers based on each person's separate order. (Note: until we know the total group order we won't know the actual discount we will receive). The website to consult is www.Andysorchids.com. All individual plant orders must be received no later than May 1st, 2009. |
