Orchid Show Details

Designed by Lily Kwong, a former model turned world-renowned eco-conscious landscape artist, the display features thousands of orchids arranged across rolling mountains that invoke meditation and ancestry. Throughout the event, attendees can participate in special scheduled programs, from drop-in sessions with horticulture staff to orchid basics Q&A to coloring postcards.

Those 21 and over can enjoy the show during Orchid Nights on select Saturdays starting at 7 p.m., when stunning floral arrangements are combined with signature cocktails and drinks, live music, and calligraphy workshops. Tickets are $39 for adults and $29 for members.
