Orchid Show

It's that time of year again - the orchid show at the Missouri Botanical Garden! We drove down to St. Louis on Friday night, attended the show Saturday morning, and then drove back. It was a quick trip, but the show is always worth it. It's a beautiful mid-winter tradition.

One of the main purposes of our trip to St. Louis was to visit the orchid show at the Missouri Botanical Garden. This year's show had a Mayan theme. It was really great, as usual. There must be a million different varieties - we see something new every year.

Last week we attended the annual orchid show at the Missouri Botanical Garden. It was stunning. I love how it is held during February and March and makes everything seem so springlike.

On Saturday, we went to the annual orchid show at the Missouri Botanical Garden. The garden is celebrating its 150th anniversary this year. We love visiting the orchid show each February. It is a welcome glimpse of spring. I always take way too many pictures because there are so many interesting varieties. Here are a couple that we thought were fascinating. We've tried to grow orchids on a few occasions but never have much success. Have you ever cared for an orchid?
