When to Visit

A quick overview of our Show and Sale.

If you are a serious Orchid Aficionado seeking the most exotic orchids coming to Toronto, you might be interested in the Early Bird Shopper’s Hour on Saturday morning. Limited admission of 125 people will ensure that you will have time to chat with your favourite vendors. Tickets at $30 per person will be available online in January. Plan to stay so that you can take in a lecture or two, and to visit the Exhibition in the Floral Hall.

2025 - SOOS Donations to the NCC

In 2024, the Southern Ontario Orchid Society received an Conservation Recognition Award from the American Orchid Society in recognition of the Society’s support of conservation efforts in Ontario.

Each year a portion of the proceeds from the Southern Ontario Orchid Society (SOOS) Annual Show and Sale is donated to a conservation project recommended by the SOOS Conservation Committee. SOOS has supported the Nature Conservancy of Canada (NCC) in several important conservation projects over the years.

Anatomy of an Orchid Show 2025

The Southern Ontario Orchid Society 43 rd Annual Orchid Show and Sale is a wonderful opportunity to visit a tropical paradise without the hassle of airports. Masses of vibrant orchid blooms bring the wild glory of nature up close and personal.

Besides the floral exhibition and sale of plants, the visitor can take in lectures by orchid experts, learn from the educational displays or admire the orchids captured in beautiful works of art and photography.

Beyond Roses 2025

Do you want to “say it with flowers” but are tired of roses? Consider a delicate and graceful orchid.

As with roses that represent love and beauty, the colour of the elegant orchid flower also has symbolic meaning. What feelings do you wish to express?
