Orchid event ready to blossom

The orchid extravaganza will include an orchid sale, a fundraising luncheon Thursday and free admission to the Crystal Bridge Tropical Conservatory on Friday.

More than 300 orchids will be available during the sale with options for beginning and advanced orchid growers. Horticulturists and orchid enthusiasts will be on hand to answer questions and help with selections.

The Myriad Botanical Gardens is at Reno and Robinson.

Admission is $6 for adults; $5 for ages 62 and older, students ages 13 to 18 and adults with a college ID; and $3 for ages 4 to 12.
