The Orchid Show

Last weekend John and I went to the orchid show at the NY Botanical Garden and it was so much fun! It was a special event on Saturday night so they had music and drinks in the conservatory for the show.

The gardens are in the Bronx so it was a bit of an adventure to get up there, but totally worth it, there were flowers everywhere!

The orchids were gorgeous and there were tons of varieties, lots of which I had never seen before.

 Off topic there was a gardenia tree. I've never seen a gardenia so big and it smelled amazing!!!

Hanging out with John and surrounded by flowers, I was a happy girl :)

 We even took an orchid home. John picked this one out, its called a "Dancing Lady" orchid because the flowers look like ladies with big skirts.
