Millions of orchids are now growing in a hundred-acre wetland in the Adirondack Park that developed on waste from a vast open-pit iron mine, a transformation scientists say is most impressive because it happened naturally.

When I saw the thread topic I thought you went for a visit to an Orchid Board member in upstate NY.

No visits on my part, unless it is to visit myself. I am a board member who lives in Upstate NY. ;-)

Very nice, it must be a spectacle. It's also a testament to the importance of the Adirondack park from whence the seeds blew in in the first place.
