San Francisco’s recent summer orchid show featured plenty of incredible sights. These photos highlight some amazing flowers on the strange fringes of the orchid family. They also demonstrate that no other flowering plant family can hold a candle to the astounding diversity of orchids. If we didn’t know better, would anybody guess that these organisms are related at all? It’s a boggling concept, yet they were all under one roof at Orchids in the Park. Find the first set of photos from the show here, and stay tuned for more as I continue to sort through our pictures.
