Thank you for the show! I go every year with my daughter but was unable to go this year so thank for the glimpse! Such a great display! Appreciate your time in filming it 😀

[@NicoleDeanna]

Appreciate you watching ❤️

[@yeleneamaralesanta624]

Me encantó, un despliegue de arte en la naturaleza, precioso

[@NicoleDeanna]

Muchas gracias :)

[@shirleyholt898]

What a fantastic orchid show. Amazing talent. I loved it all. Thanks Nicole for bringing us along. Just delightful. 🥰👏🥰👏

[@NicoleDeanna]

I'm so glad you enjoyed it!!

[@nmchai9333]

Im from Toronto in Ontario Canada.Thanks for that video❤ We have our yearly orchid show every February in our botanical garden. We have a lot of vendors and we are just crazy about orchids and all annuals and perennials as we have only a very short planting time as we are north of you. But we gardeners manage to learn how to pick the good dependable perennials for our gardens and of course houseplants like orchids and hoyas that can live longer in our house when we discover how to look after them and keep them healthy in our care. My fave mannequin is the one with the backpack, jogging pants and headphone made of orchids❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@NicoleDeanna]

That was my favorite mannequin too:) Thank you so much for watching and dropping by! Happy growing, spring is here 🌸🌷❤️

[@linda3808]

Beautiful tour. Thank you!

[@NicoleDeanna]

Thanks for watching!

[@heathersgoinnuts]

I was supposed to go to this show but something came up and I couldn't. Thank you for getting it on film so that I didn't miss it. I live in Jersey not far from NYC. I guess I will have to wait till next year. I would have loved to have been there to smell all the different scented orchids. I am a sucker for scented orchids. I have a few of my own that I saw in this show. Like the sharry baby which is right near me and makes me want chocolate all the time lol Again, thank you for taking the time to film this for us.

[@NicoleDeanna]

The show runs through April. Definitely worth checking it out :))

[@heathersgoinnuts]

@@NicoleDeanna I did not know that. Ok I am definitely going.

[@annatydniouk5739]

Thank you so much for a wonderful video! Now I know that I have to go there!

[@NicoleDeanna]

I'm so glad you liked it! Do let me know what you think when you go!

[@MaLadyW]

Thank you so much! I will definitely be going!

[@NicoleDeanna]

Awesome! I think you'll enjoy it!

[@KerynWhite-dj4jd]

Spectacular, thank you so much for taking me along … oh and those Twinkles ❤❤❤

[@louisegunn2323]

I’m from Sydney Australia 🇦🇺. I was blown away by the size of the display. Just awesome! The size of the Hoya blooms! Wow! Thank you so so much for taking the time to share. xx

[@NicoleDeanna]

Greetings all the way from New York! Thank you so much for watching. I'm glad you enjoyed the video :)

[@bibicheknauf4163]

Thank you so much for taking us along. I went there exactly 20 years ago, under 2 feet of snow😱. And, although my visit left me speechless, it looks to me like this show is even way more spectacular. Love, love, love the mannequins so much that I can’t choose one 😍

[@NicoleDeanna]

I'm glad you enjoyed it! You have to go back :))

[@bibicheknauf4163]

@@NicoleDeanna yes but, when I went I lived in PA. Now, I live in Southwest FL😉

[@NicoleDeanna]

@@bibicheknauf4163 I don't feel too bad, you have great conditions to make your own orchid show ❤️😘

[@samogen300]

Damn Nicole, you had me smiling all though that; merci.

[@rosecallahan]

great video! thanks

[@NicoleDeanna]

Glad you enjoyed it ❤️

[@janicelindegard6615]

Thank you! What a beautiful show. I went to an orchid show near me this afternoon that was about the size of one of those displays. Lol. I bought a phal and a catt. I was sorely tempted by a paph, but haven't had luck with them before. I'll get my bunch of babies from Carmela's to bloom (soon I hope!) and enjoy the big, fat, blooming size plants I bought today.

[@NicoleDeanna]

Doesn't hurt to try a paph! You can do it! You also will get your Carmela babies to bloom too :))

[@TheEarthLaughsFlowers]

Only in New York!! Thank you so much for sharing this. Id like the paph backpack and gynormous cattleya headphones for casual day wear lol and the tradescantia zebrina and phalenopsis ballgown as my wedding dress paaalease 😂 🤤 👏 ❤

[@NicoleDeanna]

😂😂😂 they were so good right? Thanks for watching ❤️

Awesome show 🌸🌺🌼

[@EileenWstCstGrl]

Beautiful show! I love going but always end up with my arms full of orchids that I don't have space for! Thanks for sharing!

[@NicoleDeanna]

I completely understand 😂 Thanks for watching ❤️

[@debracancelliere4081]

I’m going this weekend! Thanks for the preview!

[@wandashaw3551]

Hi Nicole, what stunning displays, I loved the flower covered mannequins! I recently went to a orchid society show at Hershey Gardens, which was beautiful, and I make a yearly pilgrimage to Longwood Gardens orchid show, I haven't been to NYBG, but it is on my orchid bucket list for next winter. Thank you so very much for taking the time from your trip to share this with us!!

[@NicoleDeanna]

I'm so glad you enjoyed it! I need to check out the Longwood Gardens orchid show!

[@mestimac]

I love the look of cymbidium flowers! I haven't looked into their care yet, but since I just expanded from phal hybrids, I don't think I'm ready to tackle them.

[@NicoleDeanna]

Me too! I like the way they look. They need cool night temps so I can't grow them in my apartment unfortunately. You have to get them down to 50 degrees at night in the fall. There's no way I can do it.

[@sunahyun6339]

Thank you, that was a treat!

[@NicoleDeanna]

I'm glad you enjoyed it!! ❤️

Obrigado pelo vídeo, Nicole. É tudo muito lindo!!!

[@NicoleDeanna]

Fico feliz que vc gostou ❤️

[@arleneroserenders3310]

Beautiful Nicole, thank you for sharing

[@NicoleDeanna]

Thank you for watching ❤️

[@michaelmccarthy4077]

so many ideas for how to decorate your apartment with plants and flowers. I think you need a cat statue covered in plants.

[@NicoleDeanna]

😂😂😂😂

[@TimInUT]

Loved the video Nicole! I just purchased 2 Cymbidiums online. They haven't arrived yet, but I'm already terrified of them. lol

[@NicoleDeanna]

I'm so glad you enjoyed the video! Let me know how it goes with the Cymbidiums. They need cooler temps than I can give them, but if you have a garage or a cool area you can definitely make it work. You got this!

[@TimInUT]

@@NicoleDeanna It's a little scary because the Cymbidiums were pretty expensive, and I don't want to fail with them. lol

[@LizE2654]

So enjoyed seeing this. I’m a former New Yorker and live the Botanical Garden. Were they also selling orchids?

[@NicoleDeanna]

In the gift shop yes :)

[@LizE2654]

@@NicoleDeanna did you buy something??

[@Joe-nj3bb]

My birthday is on Monday but I'm too lazy to go to NYC especially during winter. I was thinking about going to Longwood Gardens in PA but I'm not sure when to go. Chocolate scneted orchids sounds like Valentine's Day to me. I wonder what will be available at the local garden center.

[@NicoleDeanna]

The sharry baby is common! I'm sure you'll find it:)

[@lisaallen7219]

Are you allowed to buy any orchids?

[@NicoleDeanna]

In the gift shop yes :)

[@RC-no3dr]

Why is it the female orchid KZbinrs in California go to orchid shows and such and then end up missing?

[@NicoleDeanna]

I never noticed that. No idea.

[@RC-no3dr]

@@NicoleDeanna I put this comment on a an older video from one of the missing and somehow it ended up here? How strange. It just seems to be the female orchid KZbinrs in California only. Sorry, I’m not sure how my comment even ended up under this video.

[@RC-no3dr]

@@NicoleDeanna a couple of them are Attainable Green and then Anna’s orchids. I wasn’t subscribed to them but they came up on my feed so I looked over some videos and started noticing they all seem to be posting often and then, everything just stops after they mention they are going to orchid shows or shops in California. I’m glad you’re not near California, I love your videos.

[@NicoleDeanna]

@@RC-no3dr good point, I never thought of that 😂 I hope they come back, I liked attainable green :)
