Utrecht is my favorite town in The Netherlands!~
Last time I visited I stayed in a wonderful converted canal house

Nice photos! I live only 30-40min from Utrecht and the botanical garden, it's a great place to visit. As an FYI, once the covid situation allows for it again, there is an annual orchid show in the greenhouses of the botanical garden the first Saturday of October, called the NOV-dag. (NOV is the dutch orchid society). I think this year's show was also cancelled...
EDIT: Good news, it hasn't been cancelled yet!!!

great, thanks for the info Camille! unfortunately, even if it is not cancelled we have already planned a trip t9 the girls parents in spain that week, as it is our fall break from school. dang! hopefully next year. it’d be pretty cool to meet some of the European growers on here if we could ever get to a show....
