Beautiful orchids

By Denise Stewart

Scripps-Mesa Garden Club meets monthly at the Community Room of the local library on the fourth Tuesday evening at 6 p.m. This month’s presentation on orchids and getting them to rebloom will be a delight for the flower lovers in the club. Chuck McClung, a botanist, orchid specialist and author of “How to Get Orchids to Rebloom,” is scheduled to share his expertise with the local gardeners. As the year goes on, the club will be learning and improving their gardening techniques with other experts’ presentations. Tours of local gardens are also on the agenda when the days lengthen. The club’s website scrippsmesagardenclub.com is available to anyone who wants to learn more about horticultural interests and about the club.
