Visiting DC

[littlefrog]

Well... actually I'm already here, staying in Bethesda through Friday afternoon.

Any orchid related activities that i should be doing while I'm here? Has to be accessable by Metro though, I have no car.

The USBG may be having a big orchid display right now(how big? No idea). Check their website? It's right beside the mall area.

there's some kind of orchid exhibit at the nat'l history museum. http://gardens.si.edu/2007orchidshow/wild_index.htm

Too bad you can't get out to Leesburg.....

If you do go to the USBG, don't forget to go upstairs along the rail. I would guess L anceps should be in bloom..... and maybe some hoyas. heh.

Actually, now that I look back, it was relatively quiet at the USBG. Some of what was in bloom Jan 2006:
