Christian Lesage ~ COS member will discuss water and fertilizer

  • 11 Feb 2025
  • 7:00 PM - 9:30 PM
  • SOI 117 Swanton St. Winchester

It goes without saying that photosynthesis drives Christian Lesage’s passion. Once you take an interest in the ebb and flow of life, there really isn’t any choice, but to pursue the natural sciences as a career. He has a degree in Sustainable Plant Production and Landscape Management from Cornell University.  He currently works at Rock Cobble Farm in South Kent, Connecticut as the Estate Greenhouse Manager where he oversees a diverse collection of specimens with over 700 orchids in the collection. As co-president of the CT Orchid Society Christian is working to enrich the experience of what he has learned by sharing plant knowledge and connecting with other growers. 

Christian will discuss  "Elementals of Orchid Growing: A Practical and Scientific approach to demystifying watering."  He will also have instruments to test water samples for pH and TDS.  He suggests that you bring a sample of your water in a small clean water bottle with little to no air gap.
