Welcome to the Garden and to our fabulous “The Art of Orchids” show. I’m Peter Raven, president of the Missouri Botanical Garden.

Our talented horticulture and design staff works hard every year to bring you this beautiful display of winter-blooming orchids and I think you will find this years’ display to be truly exceptional.

The new audio tour by cell provides even more opportunity to learn about this fascinating collection, as you enjoy their beauty first hand.

Let us know how you like the audio tour. There will be a prompt which will allow you to tell us your thoughts.

Thanks for visiting - and I hope to see YOU at the Garden again soon.
