Kew Gardens’ Orchid Festival
Headed across the pond next month, Road Trips Gardeners? The Orchid Festival opens in the Princess of Wales Conservatory of Kew Gardens, (also known as the Royal Botanical Gardens at Kew), Richmond, Surrey, England, February 4, 2017.
This year’s theme: India’s colors, culture and plant life. The festival will celebrate how plants — especially orchids — are used in India and Indian culture in worship, medicine, and everyday life.
There will also be a chance to explore elaborate floral displays inspired by a typical Indian market.
The orchid exhibit closes March 5, 2017.
