A competition on Container Garden Design will be one of the highlights of the 71st Midyear Show of the Philippine Orchid Society which will be held at the Quezon Memorial Circle in Quezon City on September 2-16, 2017.

The competition is open to both POS members and non-members. Each contestant may submit three entries. The three top winners will receive cash prizes and trophy (for the top prize) plus ribbons.

The event aims to promote awareness for the conservation and propagation of Philippine orchid species and likewise promote local orchid producers as a reliable source for international floriculture trade.

There will be daily lectures on timely farming and gardening topics. For one, this blogger, Zac B. Sarian, will present Updates On Exotic Fruit Trees You Would Love to grow on September 14, starting at 2 o’clock.

There will be a commercial section where the gardening public will be able to buy their favorite orchids and other plants plus gardening supplies.
