Jeff Trim ble will speak about Bulbophyllums. Jeff started growing orchids in 1973 after his mother gave him two Cymbidiums when he moved out on his own. In the following years he got more involved with orchids and
became the show chairman for the Santa Clara Valley Orchid Society.
Since then he has been the president for the following orchid societies: Malihini Orchid Society, Peninsula Orchid Society, San Francisco Orchid Society, Gold Coast Cymbidium Society, Sacramento Valley Cymbidium Society, and the Cymbidium Society of America. He was an accredited judge in the Cymbidium Society of America and is presently an American Orchid Society
accredited judge.
Jeff was one of the creators of Orchids in the Park show/sale which takes place in San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park. He has made over 30 hybrids of different orchid genera including Cymbidiums. Jeff lives in Rocklin growing his orchids in a nine-by-eighteen-foot greenhouse.
