A very good friend worked as an intern at Longwood. I visited her during the winter holidays to see the beautiful displays (she was one of the crazy arborists up in the trees stringing up lights for days and days). She met her now-husband there, and they now collect orchids... =) These pictures are beautiful! A very good friend worked as an intern at Longwood.

I am astonished at the variety even given they are indoors. We have just been look at 'The Private Life of Plants' and these remind me of the bee orchids and the amazing way plants adapt to their environments to get light and nutrition by using animals and insects. Simply stunning. Thank you! These photos are stunning. I am astonished at the variety even given they are indoors.

You even captured my favorite plant, I don't know the latin name but it is called the prayer plant... It as the foot of the young man looking down. I love the foliage and love your photos... thanks for sharing Carol! Phalaenopsis, dendrobiums, cymbidiums all of my favorite orchids and you were surrounded by each of them.
