Flamingo Gardens Orchid Society Meeting
November 10, 2025
Tomas Bajza, Tarzane Group
“The Giant World of Miniature Orchid & Growing in Simple Setups"
"Doing what you love is the most rewarding thing in life!"
Even though I am living in Florida surrounded by orchids, I got into serious orchid growing only over a decade ago, starting with the usual grocery store Phalaenopsis and Dendrobiums, slowly adding Cattleyas and Vandas since these were the orchids that everyone in Florida grew! All of these were large orchids and mostly hybrids. I was constantly searching different online orchid forums and saw post about Lepanthopsis astrophora — that was the very first time I had ever seen a miniature orchid. I had no clue that such a thing even existed! I fell totally in love and immediately ordered a few.
