ORCHID-GAMI update!

By: Jay O'Neill

Thanks to the generous support from a family foundation and the Greater North Texas Orchid Society, the Spotted Lady's Slipper and the Bearded Grass Pink have been sponsored, making a total of 24 orchid-gami models now available as punch-out cards. During the recent pandemic, orchid-gami has seen a surge in use for educational, youth and family activities. The models are a great way to teach conservation, learn about flower shape and color, and how pollinators interact with these amazing plants.

Want to try orchid-gami? All 28 designs are freely available on the official orchid-gami web page - just download and print the pdf files. We have even included simple printing instructions!
You might prefer to 'skip the scissors', so punch-out cards are available directly from NAOCC. If your local orchid society, youth or craft group or class would like to try orchid-gami, we offer a significant discount when the models are used for educational purposes. Contact us at naooc@si.edu.

COMING SOON! We have been working with Tuttle Publishing to produce a special box set of 20 orchid-gami punch-out cards with a booklet that contains information about the orchids featured in this set. Look for this special boxed set available on Amazon in fall of 2022!
