2023 Cleveland Botanical Garden Orchid Show Opens Soon

CLEVELAND, Ohio - The Cleveland Botanical Garden's 17th Annual Orchid Show - Orchids Forever - begins on Saturday, January 28th and ends on Sunday, March 12th. It includes 100 different species of orchids from around the world. Tickets are on sale now at Holdenfg.org.

"Orchids can be the most amazing flowers on earth, probably because everyone seems to be looking at us. Orchids are both mysterious and amazing and delicate, but they grow in the most difficult conditions on earth." Caroline Tait, Vice President of Horticulture and Collections: “At this year's show, we celebrate the beauty of planted orchids: vibrant colors, intricate patterns and unique shapes.

Orchids live in almost every environment except arid deserts and Antarctica. They are the largest and most diverse of the flowering plant family. Expo 2023 will show them in bright colors. Species such as Phalaenopsis , Dendrobium and Cymbidium have pink, white, purple, orange and yellow. They can be seen in the main hall and the greenhouse.

Many unusual species of orchids are available at gardening centers for those who want to bring them home with soil and compost. On Saturday and Sunday, February 4 and 5, the garden will host the Greater Cleveland Orchid Society's annual orchid show and sale.

Virtual and in-person lessons are available throughout the event. For more information, visit https://holdenfg.org/events/cleveland-botanical-garden/orchids-forever-3/
