In addition to my earlier list, these botanical gardens also host winter orchid exhibits. All of them are great destinations for a cold winter day or a special valentine.

February 1 – March 9
Escape from winter at the Cleveland Botanical Garden’s Orchid Mania 2014. Along with stunning flowers, the event includes an interior design showcase, a special photography session, and an orchid doctor available for questions on Saturday afternoons.

Head to St. Louis to see remarkable orchids from a world-renowned collection. The Missouri Botanical Garden’s orchid greenhouses date back to 1876, and currently house over 7,000 orchids. The show displays some of the garden’s best specimens, and turns the Orthwein Floral Display Hall into a lush, tropical oasis.

Discover exotic orchids at Cambridge University’s Botanic Garden. The Glasshouse Range hosts the February Orchid Festival as the perfect antidote for a British winter.
