Why Join?
Some of the benefits of membership:
1.     Ten monthly meetings from February to November provide demonstrations, informative talks and          workshops as well as contact with other growers. There is also a May "Show" lunch and a                    Christmas Luncheon in early December to present  Annual Trophies and celebrate the year.

2.     Meetings include a competition table of plants where growers’ plants are judged and points                    awarded. The points are accumulated over the year toward trophies at the Christmas function.
​
3.      Each meeting has a Trading Table and members are able to sell plants or purchase all the                     supplies they will need for growing African violets and other Gesneriads as well as a selection of           plants for sale.

4.     There is a library of books and digital material about African violets and other Gesneriads that              are listed on the web-based index and available for loan to members. There is also a web-based          database of plants being grown in WA.
