Visiting the Atlanta Botanical Gardens is always a highlight of my trips to Atlanta, and stopping in at the Fuqua Orchid Center is always a favorite. The Center was donated by the J. B. Fuqua Family in 2002.
Here is a video of the beautiful entrance to the center – it was filled with anthuriums and succulents in a wave pattern that coordinated with the metal sculpture.
And this is what you first see when you enter the Center – tons and tons of orchids!!

This room is packed from floor to ceiling with amazing orchids from all over the world. It is quite a sight to see. Here are some of my favorites that were blooming on my most recent visit.
