P-OSI

A joint initiative between Phipps Conservatory and the Orchid Society of Western Pennsylvania to create and cultivate an orchid collection of note for enjoyment, education and research.

​

April, 2026

 

Pfun at Phipps is our OSWP repotting efforts as well as doing the inventory of the Phipps orchid collection. We are also helping as the Clean-up Crew and whatever Thathmini needs. We are now going to Phipps most Tuesdays and Thursdays and an occasional Wednesday, from 10AM–1PM. It’s a great learning experience for all of us. Inventory starts at 9:15AM.

 

Our goal is to help Phipps grow their orchid collection to one of national note, as well as the growth of the Barbara Tisherman Slipper Orchid Collection, a living museum of slipper orchids.

​

Be sure not to miss Phipps Spring Show, “True Colors,” opening at the end of March.

​

If you would like to join our Pfun/P-OSI efforts and haven’t previously signed up with us, please let me know at the email address below.  

 

Looking forward to working and learning together. . . and having Pfun!
