Orchids at the US Botanical Garden

Post by Robyn »

I got a chance to visit on Saturday and had a great time taking pictures. Definitely worth the time if you get the opportunity. I don't have any orchids but would like to one day.

I knew If I looked back far enough, I'd find a thread about orchids. I visited a greenhouse yesterday and spotted these beauty's. The color and pattern are amazing. Enjoy. Later, Love, Lisa
P.S. Most of my pictures were sized too big so I through in one from the Arboretum.
