Welcome to our annual fund-raising auction! A printable version of the Catalog, and detailed Bidder Instructions are available at: https://www.goldcoastcymbidiumsociety.org/auction.html
A few items have updates made after the printable Catalog was issued to membership and posted on club website on Jan 12. These updates are noted on each item's description on this site.

The example flower photo shown first on most items does not mean the plant is currently in bloom. For the size of plant being auctioned, see item description, and the actual plant photos that follow the example flower photo.
