The purpose of this society shall be a united effort to stimulate a general interest in orchids, to exchange information of mutual interest relative to propagation, growth, cultural methods and exhibition of orchids. In June of 1961, the Heart O' Texas Orchid Society was organized by our charter members: Dr. & Mrs. S.W. Bohls, Mr. & Mrs J.D. Fisk, Mr. & Mrs. R. Brooks Oakley, Mr. Ed Peterson, Mr. Colin Seale, Mr. & Mrs. Harold Schmitt and Mr. & Mrs. W.B. Wardlow. Here we are over 50 years later celebrating orchids and carrying on their original vision for the society. We owe them a depth of gratitude for their contribution of extensive orchid knowledge that they freely shared with all who were interested, allowing us to broaden our reach to new and younger generations of orchid growers. Whether you are 12 or 92, we understand and encourage your love of orchids.

It's a great place to find out more about these fascinating plants. My surprise was discovering the wide diversity of types of Orchids, their flowers, growth patterns and appearances. The combined years of growing and experience (of our members) make our Society a great resource for information and problem solving.
