World of Orchids is actually a working greenhouse that will ship its orchids and other plants nationwide. To educate and enchant the public, they have constructed a vast greenhouse covering some three-quarters of an acre. In the carefully controlled warm, humid air some 1,000 orchids are displayed in a natural jungle setting, complete with waterfalls, babbling streams, and squawking parrots. The total varies seasonally and can double at certain times of the year.
World of Orchids also has a “nature walk,” a 1,000-foot-long boardwalk that meanders off into a nearby wetlands. Nearby: Arabian Nights, Water Mania.
