Bundaberg Bush House & Garden Club Inc

Bundaberg Bush House & Garden Club Inc Our club fosters & supports the interest of members, and the community, in gardens, bush houses and friendships. Bundaberg Bush House and Orchid Club Inc.

was founded in 1962 by a group of plant lovers and continues today, with equally keen members. The objective of the club is to foster and support the interest of our members, and the community in general, in gardens, bush houses and plants. A night meeting is held on the 4th Thursday of each month, except December. One of the highlights of our night meetings is the popular vote. Members display th

eir prized plants including orchids, flowering plants, foliage, ferns, bromeliads, cacti and succulents. We also have 'single bloom" for those of us who have a special plant in flower, and ‘pride of my garden’ categories. Guest speakers at the meetings provide valuable information on the growth and maintenance of quality plants, including practical demonstrations. An important social aspect of our club are our field trips, often to fellow members gardens, held in a friendly and informal atmosphere. We are closely associated with ‘sister’ clubs in neighboring towns from Rockhampton to the Sunshine Coast. We have a busy social calendar, with coach tours to southern garden expos and open gardens. It is our pleasure to return the hospitality of ‘sister’ clubs, who provide a wonderful day when we visit, showing us their lovely gardens. The growing of plants is a relaxing and therapeutic pastime, and the friendship of like-minded people is very rewarding.

One of our proactive librarians, Lori, has created a record keeping book for the club Iibrary.

New gardening books have been added to the library also.

Lori has also created a form for members to use if they are seeking out a particular plant another member may have. Well thought out Lori.

Today we had the privilege of guest speaker Lenzie Duffy presenting to us.

Lenzie has devoted most of his life to growing fruit and vegetables. His focus is on organic methods.

Lenzie does this successfully here in Bundaberg on a normal house block.

Thank you Lenzie.

The club hopes to visit Lenzie's garden one field day.
