Calendar of Events: Orchid Extravaganza at Longwood Gardens

As one of the first plant collections at Longwood, orchids have held a place of distinction since 1922. Longwood' talented horticulturists celebrate the beauty and variety of orchids with an artful display that includes a towering 12-foot-tall archway made up of pink Phalaenopsis orchids, giant orbs of orchids hanging over the fern floor, a spectacular purple and white orchid curtain, and more than 200 Vanda hanging from the ceiling in the Silver Garden. More orchids, more surprises, more living works of art await!
