From rare species to exotic hybrids, Orchid Adventure promises an immersive experience that combines the enchantment of the animal kingdom with the delicate beauty of orchids.
Set among the backdrop of the balmy Tropical Forest, Orchid Adventure celebrates orchids that share native habitats with the animals that reside in this space. Orchids from tropical America will be featured amongst Baird’s tapirs, an ocelot, and giant anteater. Select plants from West Africa and Madagascar will highlight conservation stories where habitats overlap with western lowland gorillas, pygmy hippos, and ring-tailed lemurs.
