From Albuquerque to Zululand, orchid shows fill every corner of the globe. Many are perfectly timed for Mother’s Day. Among this month’s great events, London’s Chelsea Flower Show<\/a> is the most famous flower show in the world, and showcases plenty of orchids. The San Jose Orchid Expo<\/a> pairs floral beauty with wine tasting. Canada’s Bruce Peninsula Orchid Festival<\/a> isn’t a show, but offers nature tours with the rare opportunity to see 44 native orchid species growing in the wilds of Ontario. <\/p>\n
