Next Meeting Tues Sept 13th at 7:30 pm Sharp!
Woman's Club of Deerfield Beach SPEAKER OF THE MONTH: Tom Kuligowski on “Unusual and Natural Mounting” Tom Kuligowski has been an orchid hobbyist for well over seventeen years. He has created and cared for three collections throughout that time period. Each collection being larger in number and healthier than the previous. As any other hobbyist, he is a firm believer that you learn from your mistakes. As you learn, you should see your collection not only grow in size (the mortality rate or loss of plants decreases) but you should also see an improvement in the quality and number of blooms in your collection. Being a professional photographer, Tom has documented every aspect of his collections. He has created two programs over the last few years using the images that he’s captured. The first program is that of the Angreacums he has specialized in growing since early 2000. The second regarding an orchid’s natural growing ability as epiphytes and/or as lithophytes. The second program entitled “Unusual and Natural Mounting” is his latest to be presented to various orchid societies. In it he discusses the reasons behind mounting, why mount, materials that work best and shows results he has achieved through his mounting techniques. For More about Tom Visit: www.artimages.us
