Cymbidium Species and their Contributions

Hatfield Orchids is fortunate enough to be located in Ventura County, California, which has an ideal climate for the propagation of Cymbidium orchids. We are an operation of family and friends and orchids are our passion.

 George is active in both the Cymbidium Society of America and the American Orchid Society, as well as several Southern California regional orchid organizations. George is an orchid judge for both the CSA and AOS, and is currently the Chairman of the Santa Barbara judging region for the CSA.

George is also a past-president of the CSA and was the Chairman of the CSA Cymbidium Congress from 1998-2001 and president of the Santa Barbara International Orchid Show in 2002 & 2003. Currently George is Chair of the Pacific South Judging Region, AOS, and Vice President of the Santa Barbara International Orchid Show.
