A small group of people with a big love of growing orchids

Catasetum Chuck Taylor 'Kat' FCC and CCE/AOS July 8th, 2023 to Bruce Byorum

Late summer and fall is prime blooming season for orchids of the Catasetinae Alliance family. This amazing plant was awarded at the Chicago Judging Center July meeting to our member, Bruce Byorum. He tells us how he grows these beauties in our Fall newsletter.

Welcome

 The Eastern Iowa Orchid Society (EIOS), formerly the Iowa City Orchid Society, is as our logo states “A small group of people with a big love of growing orchids”. Members come from all around eastern Iowa. We meet at the Shueyville United Methodist Church, Shueyville, Iowa.  

The church is located 1 mile EAST of Exit 10 (Swisher-Shueyville) off interstate 380. Our meetings begin with a social time at 6:30 pm; followed by the official meeting and an educational program at 7:00 pm. Meetings are free and open to anyone interested in orchids! Our club displays orchids at regional orchid shows and participates in American Orchid Society orchid judging. Meetings include educational programs on beginning orchid growing, discussion about various types of orchids, and  orchid conservation. Check out our brief video!
