I had the fortune to attend the 2013 Pacific Orchid Exposition at Fort Mason, San Francisco, last month. Wow, what an explosion of bright colors and exotic shapes! This year’s theme was East Meets West – a theme picked up by many of the booths and exhibits. As I don’t know much about orchids, I’ll simply share some of the sights this week, starting with some of the displays.
