A reminder to those in the midwest ... The Missouri Botanical Garden in St.
Louis launches it's annual orchid show this weekend. The theme this year is
"The Enchanted Forest." It will feature 700-800 blooming orchids and last
through March 16. The Garden rotate out spent plants and replace them with
new bloomers, approx. 100 per week, so it will continue to change. Also this
weekend in conjunction with the MoBot event will be the Missouri Orchid
Society Mini Show and Sale. They usually attract a dozen vendors or so.
