Our Meetings
The OSEA meets on the 3rd Friday of each month. Doors open at 7pm with the meeting commencing at 7.30pm.
We begin with the main business of the meeting, which could be a visiting speaker or a presentation by one of our members. In addition we hold an annual plant auction together with a plant clinic.
Following refreshments members have to opportunity to view the monthly table show and vote for their favourite plant.
The society has a well stocked library covering everything from cultural information for novice growers to books on specific genera. These are available on a monthly loan.
