The Tropical Garden Society of Sydney has the goal of fostering interest in growing tropical plants in a subtropical climate. It aims to educate and share information through expert presentations. It also provides access to plants that are not readily available in Sydney. Regular meetings are held in a central location and have a friendly, informal and non-competitive atmosphere. New members are very welcome.
Our next meeting is scheduled for 7:30 pm Tuesday 24th February at Concord and on Zoom.
Our Speaker is Gowan Stewart who will be discussing Growing Phalaenopsis Orchids.
Gowan's talk will be centered upon the growing of Phalaenopsis. These are the world’s most popular indoor plant and the world’s most popular indoor orchid.
Her focus will be on keeping Phalaenopsis alive and flowering year after year when growing at home. With the current trend of the demise of the home with a backyard and the increase in unit dwelling, indoor plants will play a greater role in decorating the home and giving pleasure and interest to the occupants.
Gowan will also be happy to discuss growing other orchids or indoor foliage plants.
The photo below shows the beautiful display that she presented at Orchids Central in October 2025.
