LONGWOOD GARDENS ORCHID SHOW- GO, GO, GO! (Click here) )
The scent of lilies filled the air as I arrived at Longwood Gardens in Kennett Square, Pa. Orchids everywhere! Perched in trees, hanging from ceilings and walls they transported me to another world. Did you know that the vanilla bean comes from an orchid plant? Look on the dannon vanilla yogurt container and you will see it. The orchid plant grows up the wall on a vine but the flower is very small. Have an early spring and go!
