The Western North Carolina Orchid Society (WNCOS) and The North Carolina Arboretum will host the 23rd Asheville Orchid Festival entitled “House of Orchids.” 

This will be an American Orchid Society sanctioned judging event.

World-class orchid growers and breeders, along with regional orchid societies, will exhibit at the annual show with hundreds of orchids presented in carefully crafted displays.

Orchids will be for sale by vendors from Ecuador and across the United States. Attendees should expect rare species and cutting-edge hybrids.

Admission to the Asheville Orchid Festival is $5 for everyone over the age of 12 years old, and free for Western North Carolina Orchid Society Members.

The event will be held from April 12-14 at the North Carolina Arboretum. For more information visit wncos.org or ncarboretum.org.
