American Orchid Society and Orchid Digest

The American Orchid Society website has lots of valuable information, some of which is available only to members. The AOS issues the monthly publication Orchids. There is also the Orchid Digest, a quarterly publication not to be missed. The St. Augustine Orchid Society is an affiliated society with both the AOS and Orchid Digest.

On the second Saturday of each month, AOS judges convene at the Clermont Garden Club to evaluate any orchids brought to them before 10 am, 849 West Avenue in Clermont 34711.
