Have you gone yet? I went today--I must say, I was SLIGHTLY disappointed this year in comparison to past years!

This reminds me of the time when I thought an orchid chandelier would be a great show display idea. White candles surrounded by Dendrochillums and Holcoglossum wangii's. I think I may need to draw a picture of that.

I didn't like it this year.
I think it has the least amount of orchid plants and the giant chandelier was, well, not so pretty, to say the least.

I understand they want to try something different as this is a annual thing and some people might find it boring, but I think it's still great to go see a whole bunch of colorful flowers in bloom while it is so ugly and cold outside. a treat!

Thanks for the tour. Wish I had room for hanging arrangements that large. They are beautiful. Love the jade vines.

I enjoyed the show more so than other years. I thought the way they were doing it was boring. Since they really don't exhibit orchid species, I thought this was a great setup to draw interest. I have pics which I will post this week.
