Celebrating 30 Years of Orchid Love in Hermanus

Press Release: July 2024

Walker Bay Orchid Society was established in 1994 in the Sandbaai and Hermanus area in the Western Cape by a group of Orchid enthusiasts.

The goal of this Society is to share their knowledge about orchids, to curb the stereotype that “Orchids are difficult to grow”, and to share the beauty of orchids with the public.

This year the Society is 30 years old which is a marvellous achievement and a testament to the captivating nature of orchids.

An orchid show will be held to celebrate our 30 years and we really hope that you will join in the celebration and visit the show.

Orchids will also be on sale for those who want to increase their collection or who would like to start the amazing journey of growing orchids.
