We invite everyone, from enthusiastic orchid growers, photographers, to curious gardening novices... or those who simply enjoy the captivating aroma and elegance of orchids. Everyone will marvel at the complex blooms and complex plant families on display. A juried exhibit managed by the Santa Barbara Art Association allows visitors to experience orchids as the focus of fine art and photography. Th
e show orchid and art market includes regional, national, and international vendors offering thousands of blooming orchid plants, orchid-related art and growing supplies for sale. During the show weekend, visitors can also enjoy the beautiful orchids at local nurseries, many of which will hold open houses and special sales concurrent with the Orchid Show. Information on area nurseries is available through The California Orchid Trail web site at www.californiaorchidtrail.com. The Santa Barbara International Orchid Show is a non-profit 501(c)3 organization dedicated to bringing the enjoyment of orchids to the public.
