Directions

Directions to meeting site at Charleston Southern University:

Exit I-26 at the Highway 78 exit to Trident Medical Center/Charleston Southern University.

The entrance to CSU is on the left, immediately across from the entrance to Trident Hospital.
Turn left as if to go through the CSU gates, but immediately turn left again onto the frontage
road rather than going through the gates. Continue on the frontage road to the end (tenth of a
mile). Take a right turn, passing Wingate Hotel on the left.

Take the first parking lot entrance on the right. The Science Building will be in front of you
slightly to the left. It has a dome on top and a greenhouse in front.

Park either in front of the building (longer walk) or to the right near the greenhouse. The meeting
is in Room 138B.

February 12, 2012
Our speaker will be Gene Crocker, who has more experience in the field of
orchid hybridization than most orchid growers alive today. He was Vice
President of Carter and Holmes for 20 years. Gene retired last year, but his
50-year passion for orchids, and cattleyas in particular, is unabated.
Whether speaking about cattleya breeding or his experiences and travels in
the world of orchids, Gene's talks are always a pleasure to hear.
topic of Gene's talk will be "Cattleyas for the New
Millennium"
