A week ago I decided to take advantage of the membership that I already have for the Chicago Botanic Garden and go to their annual Orchid Show. Without a membership it is $25 to park a car, but admission to the garden is actually free if you just walk or bike in! I like supporting the CBG, so I have a membership. Plus, membership include a recipricol program at 300 other botanic gardens that I could get into for free.


Their theme this year was "Orchids in Vogue", showing how orchids are used in our culture and fashions - or "Horticouture". The fragrance was intoxicating, and I felt like I was on an island holiday!
