Of the dozens of shows around the globe this month, I’m fortunate enough to live in the backyard of one of the largest, the Pacific Orchid Expo<\/a> opening February 24th. Only Tokyo’s show<\/a> opening February 18th is bigger. No matter the orchid count, all these shows offer magical blooms for your enjoyment. Many are perfectly timed to shop for Valentine’s Day gifts.<\/p>\n
