ALWAYS BEAUTIFUL TO LOOK AT!
It's a once a year event and very popular. An exhibition of orchids in the refurbished hothouse in the Jardin des Plantes. I was there at the same time last year. A FEAST FOR YOUR EYES This year Borgy wanted to stroll down to the gardens even if it was a cold and blustery day. So we did. The opening for the orchid display was for the following day but the Hothouse was open so in we went. How lucky we were. The gardners were installing the orchids. Up in the tropical trees, along the creek, over the bridge and we were practically alone. That cannot be said when I returned with Pierrette a couple of weeks later. Still it's always a pleasure to see but this time, I did not buy an orchid! And in case you are a little hungry......
