Orchid Culture Sheets

ORCHID CULTURE FOR BEGINNING GROWERS

Here you will find Culture Sheets prepared by the American Orchid Society, giving you basic instruction in the care and culture of the most commonly grown orchid genera. The culture sheets are in PDF format, so you will need the free Adobe Acrobat Reader installed to view the files:

                                  

Volumes have been written regarding the specific needs of various species within these general alliances, but these sheets give the beginner a good place to start. For more details about growing specific plants, we invite you to become a member of the Orchid Society of the Ozarks. Advanced growers will be more than happy to answer your specific orchid culture questions!
