Denver Botanical Gardens

 

 

The Denver Botanic Gardens  feature a variety of gardens from all over the world.  Many are best grown in Denver due to the high altitude and the nature of temperature swings.    There are gardens that are planted to show "drought-tolerant" and another focused on European horticulture.

 

 

The gardens were first dedicated in 1954 at City Park, but the "night diggers" were uncontrollable in the unfenced area.    In 1958 the Botanic Gardens were moved to the current location at 9th & York.

Joan, my Grandmother loved Orchids and I would love to attend the Orchid Showcase at the Denver Botanic Gardens. They aren't easy to maintain and take a special talent. I bet they are gorgeous.

Good Morning Joan: The beauty of the intricate colors, petals and forms of these nature's gifts should indeed take away the winter blues.

Orchids are very delicate. They do need special attention.

Thanks for sharing the photo.

I love your idea for a Valentine's date at the Botanic Gardens in Denver. That would be romantic and it might save some costs on floral deliveries. ;)

Orchids come in so many varieties that it can be a real enjoyable experience seeing them in one venue. Each one is a little creation.

Jaon,

 Not sure how I missed this but I do love orchids and would love to go to the show. I wanted to make it to the CHihuly exhibit but ran out of time!
