SOCIETY LIBRARY


Click here for a list of books (and other material) in the Society's Library.

Other than those marked "reference", all books are available for members to borrow. Due to the large number of books in the library, we can only bring a limited number to monthly meetings. If you wish to borrow a book, please contact the librarian at least 1 week before the meeting. Any books requested after this deadline may be delayed to the following meeting.


*** IMPORTING ORCHIDS TO CANADA***

Jean Hollebone and Marilyn Light have produced several documents to inform members what is required to bring orchids into Canada from the upcoming World Orchid Congress to be held in Florida this January 2008. These documents can be found on the Canadian Orchid Congress web site www.canadianorchidcongress.ca/WOC2008.html , or you can directly click the titles below:


SPIKE NEWSLETTER


Please click here to download the latest edition of Spike.

There was an article in the May 2003 Spike on Paph.vietnamense, which is a new paphiopedilum species that is very striking and is being used to breed all types of new and exciting crosses. Please click here for a photo.

If you have something to contribute to Spike, please contact the editor, Rick Sobkowicz. An editor's life is not easy with a deadline to meet each month, and he is always willing and eager to receive suggestions. Even better, submit your contribution by e-mail and Rick can simply "cut and paste" directly without having to retype. Every little helps! You can find Rick's phone number and email address under "how to contact us" in the left panel.


Society Membership is Only $25/yr.
