Orchid Daze

Hanging Gardens

February 4 - April 15

Babylon meets Midtown with Orchid Daze highlighting dramatic hanging gardens cascading with lush, fragrant beauty. This year marks the 10th anniversary of both the Orchid Daze exhibition and the Fuqua Orchid Center, home to the largest collection of species orchids in the U.S.

Enter a fantasy world where shimmering Moth orchids (Phalaenopsis) and amber slipper orchids (Paphiopedilum) float overhead. Be enveloped by a hanging tapestry of amethyst pansy orchids (Miltoniopsis) and browse the contents of a stunning "orchid jewel box" with a dazzling array of gem-toned vandas.

“There is no better place for escaping the cold, gray winter doldrums in Atlanta than at Orchid Daze,” said Mary Pat Matheson, executive director. “This year’s celebration promises to be quite an exotic spectacle that will leave our guests in awe.”
