Tom Sampliner, a naturalist from Cuyahoga County, Ohio, will speak on the topic “Orchids, other wildflowers and rugged scenery of Western China”. He spent two weeks on a plant-hunting expedition last summer that was guided by resident orchidologist Dr. Holger Perner and his wife.  The presentation will include images of flowering plants, especially orchids, and the habitats where they are found, as well as some general sightseeing. The meeting will take place in Room 5, Royal Botanical Gardens, 680 Plains Road W., Burlington. The formal part of the meeting begins at 2 p.m. You are invited to come any time after 1 p.m. to socialize and talk to vendors. Members and guests welcome.
