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.

October, 2024

 

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 is needed.  We usually go to Phipps some Tuesdays,  Wednesdays or Thursdays from 9:45AM – 12:45PM. It’s a great learning experience for all of us.

 

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

 

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.  We usually set up the month’s schedule the 3rd week of the preceding month with 2-6 Pfunsters each day.  Contact me and sign up.  We’ll add you to our Pfunster team!

 

While you’re having Pfun, be sure to see Phipps Fall Flower Show, “Rhythm and Blooms,” opening October 5th.

 

Thanks and looking forward to working and learning together. . . and having Pfun!
