August Meeting
Jim Hamilton of Petite Plaisance gave a talk on "Easy to Grow Species" along with a great slide show of unusual (to me at least) plants.  Had it been me talking on the plants that I find easy to grow, the talk and slide show would have been only several minutes!   Have a look at the Petit Plaisance web site,  as expected the plant table was wonderful.


Encyclia tripunctata from the plant table

Ulrike and I were lucky enough to win the Encyclia from the raffle table with the ticket we got for bringing plants for the display table.  So it can be well worth bringing display plants and refreshments! (We did buy some tickets as well but without luck this month.)

A great display table as usual, below are this months winners, but click here for some of other plants I captured.

Again, let me know if you would like an email when I make the monthly updates, send me an email at webmaster@diabloviewos.org.
