The Brazilian Laelias and Encyclias bloomed early this year, so if those are your favorites, we suggest you visit the weekend of July 8-10, rather than July 15-17.

The safety of our customers and staff is of the utmost importance to us.  Masks are required at all times while on the nursery grounds (indoors and outdoors). Please maintain a distance of 6 feet between your party and your fellow orchid lovers and the SBOE staff.  Please do not visit if you have been in close contact with anyone who has recently tested positive for COVID or if you have COVID-like symptoms.  Some parts of our nursery will be closed during this limited opening.
