Yes, as Alice Cooper once sang “School’s out for summer” and so is meeting in halls and other activities we were used to in pre-Covid19 days (but hopefully things may get better soon). But, that hasn’t stopped the members of Southern Suburbs Orchid Society from getting their cameras and camera phones out and taking photos of orchids from their collections and submitting them to our first virtual competition in January 2021.

We have never had a January competition before so it was fascinating to see what is in flower, in what is normally a very hot month. This is just a sample of the varied and quality entries we had.

• There were 42 entries in this competition and all are on display in the categories – Open, intermediate and Novice.

See all entries on our What’s Flowering in January 2021 page.
