The Long Island Orchid Society will be holding its 11th annual festival at Planting Fields Aboretum in Oyster Bay on May 29-31, 2026, from 9 AM - 5 PM.
This year’s theme is all about growing orchids in a flask.
A demonstration on deflasking will show what it takes to grow orchids from seeds to the blooming size you get at the store. (Saturday at 12:30-1:30).
There are going to be presentations on how to successfully care for your orchids and answer all of your questions. (Saturday & Sunday 2:15-3:15).
The Art League of Nassau County will have local artists painting outdoors all weekend. Their works will be on display and for sale at the festival. One of these artists will give an orchid watercolor demonstration (Sunday at 12:30-2:00).
Orchid society members will be available to diagnose problem orchids and repot them at a nominal cost for materials.
Vendors will offer a large selection of rare and exotic orchids from around the world for you to purchase.
