A Note from Our President:
Welcome! Since 1961, the Heart of Texas Orchid Society has been the premiere orchid information and education resource for the Austin and Central Texas area. Whether you are a novice or an expert, our society has something for you. Our informative monthly meetings with national and international speakers, panel discussions, auctions, greenhouse tours, public orchid shows, and plant sales all provide the opportunity to learn how to expertly grow and bloom this charming and exotic plant in your own home or backyard. Let us teach you how to rebloom that recent orchid you received or to help you increase your collection. We all started with just one! Monica Gaylord, HOTOS President |
