A study in contrasts

Wonderful & Weird
With more than 10,000 orchids, all blooming at once, the Orchid Show is a welcome sight for winter-sore eyes—and the only show of its kind in the Chicago area! With colors bold & ethereal, flowers elegant & bizarre, fragrances sweet & rotten, and stories ancient & modern, a visit to the Orchid Show is a fascinating study in contrasts.
