We are so glad you decided to stop by for a visit. The Houston Orchid Society has been in existence in Houston since 1945. Through the years we have become a vibrant family of orchid lovers dedicated to the preservation of orchids in their natural habitats and the education of the public.

2008 has already provided a lot of fun and excitement to the many HOS members who gathered in Miami for the 19th WOC in January.  The HOS held a highly successful spring show in April and we are now planning the AOS Members Meeting and Show in April 2009.  Many other events are planned for this year and the speaker lineup for this year is exceptional.  If you want to learn about orchid culture or add plants to your collection, the  HOS monthly meetings are sure to please.

Accept this invitation to come partake in the enjoyment of the beautiful, the odd, fragrant, and varied world of orchids.  Welcome to the Houston Orchid Society web site and the orchid community.
