Orchids - Mother Nature's Masterpiece (Photo Gallery)

Throughout the month of March, Longwood Gardens has an orchid collection that is stunning to the eye as well as the other senses. From Moth to Lady slipper orchids, there are more than 2000 species of orchids in the conservatory.
There are even a couple orchids with fragrances that have a slight hint of vanilla or chocolate. AL DIA News took a trip to Kennett Square to see how many species of orchids we can find. Look down low and even look high up in the trees.  You never know what type or orchid you may find.

We thank Longwood Gardens for their hospitality as well as getting the chance to see the chocolate orchid.
