Passiflora Society International Meeting
September 4 and 5, 2009 at Butterfly World
Please join us for our next Passiflora Society International Meeting. There will be a lot of new members attending in addition to many experts in the field from quite a few countries. This should be one of the best meetings ever since we began in 1990. Most of you have never met and this would be a wonderful opportunity to meet, greet and share info with many other PSI members. We encourage you to come since it will be exciting!
This is a wonderful time to share seeds, plants, photos, secrets, books and conversations. Ron Boender will show his collection of well over 100 species of passifloras. He currently has 43 of the 54 species found in Costa Rica.
Passiflora Meeting

Please join us for our next Passiflora Society International Meeting, September 4 and 5, which is coming up soon!
We need presentations, papers, power point shows and recommendations.
Butterfly World staff members are trying to plan this event, so please don’t delay making your PSI and Hotel Reservations (please see below). The cost to attend is only $25 per member, which includes both days, Friday, September 4 and Saturday, September 5. No discounts if you attend only one day. The “Official Meeting” will be held on Saturday. Click here to pay $25 meeting cost or mail a check payable to Butterfly World. We need to know now who is planning on attending, so we can schedule appropriately. Please e-mail us through the Contact page today so we know how to plan.
If you have any suggestions for an activity, please email us through the Contact page. Last time we visited Loxahatchee Everglades Tours for an airboat tour and Boynton Botanicals – Wholesale Nursery. Another suggestion would be “Shark Valley” in Everglades National Park to experience the everglades and hundreds of alligators up close.
