More from the Montreal Botanical Garden

It was easy to find more great photos from Dave’s trip to the Montreal Botanical Garden. These pictures come from the Orchids and Aroids Greenhouse and the Tropical Rainforest Greenhouse. They include more orchids and lots of bromeliads.

The Tropical Rainforest Greenhouse features realistic depictions of how air plants, like orchids, grow attached to trees in the wild. Several artificial logs span the glasshouse, hosting orchids, ferns, and bromeliads like real rainforest trees.

I realize I’ve done two posts about Montreal, but still only shown two greenhouses out of the 185 acre (75 hectare) garden. There’s certainly more to come. Check back soon for more impressive botany from Canada.
