NYBG Orchid Doors

Sherry Felix14 Comments

We went to see the annual The Orchid Show: Mr. Flower Fantastic’s Concrete Jungle | New York Botanical Garden. Very unusual setting s this year. I’m not sure if I liked it. The orchids in circular laundry doors are fun.

A quote from the NYBG website:

New York City has never bloomed like this. At The Orchid Show: Mr. Flower Fantastic’s Concrete Jungle, orchids collide with concrete in a dazzling reimagining of the Big Apple, from stoops and slice shops to the subway itself. Step into a breathtaking fusion of nature and cityscape artistry in the Enid A. Haupt Conservatory, and experience the flair and style of New York transformed by thousands of flowers.
