34TH. Annual Open House!


NEW THIS YEAR! Our Open House is a Double-Header! We have been working hard to be able to host our So. African friends at AFRI ORCHIDS but Covid travel restrictions have been a big hurtle. Missed them at Summer Hummer time in July, but they are ticketed and shipping plants for this year’s November event. US govt. said no So. African travelers until Nov. 8th, so we’ve extended our sale dates to include TWO weekends. Just remember, AFRI sales will be here at Cal only on Nov. 12th and 131th. Friday and Saturday. Join in on the fun no matter whether you are a seasoned veteran or a brand new orchid grower. We are here to help with your selections. We'll feature the start of the cym season, laelia anceps are also bursting with spike development, and new species and hybrids in a great assortment of genera are sure to temp you even further. . So mark your calendars for a road trip to SANTA BARBARA November. It’s right around the corner!

PARKING: It is tight. It has always been difficult. We will have a club cart to help with loading up plants to your car, wherever you are parked. The side streets are okay, but limited. Be mindful of our neighbors' driveways and landscapes etc.at all times. Thank you and we look forward to seeing everyone.
