Getting out and about.

The Critters of RF Orchids

My favorite part of RF Orchids wasn’t the orchids.

A Visit to the Fairchild Botanic Garden

I love living in San Francisco, but all my favorite plants belong to the tropics.

San Francisco’s Newest Hidden Plant Store

Just last month, the SFBG opened a small plant store, and it’s a gem.

Everything’s Blooming at the Conservatory

Even if you’ve been to the Conservatory of Flowers before, it’s time for another visit.

A Visit to SarraceniaDude Gardens

I’d seen some carnivorous plants before, but I’ve never seen anything like Rob’s garden.

San Francisco’s Hidden Plant Stores

Tucked away from view, hidden in backyards like secret handshakes.

Orchidgasm at the Pacific Orchid Expo

I left my jaw on the floor of the Pacific Orchid Expo.

Lands End, San Francisco

Heather and I took advantage of the first sunny day in a while and visited Lands End. The plants were all stretching out with the beginnings of spring.

Paula Hayes at The Museum of Modern Art

If you’re in New York City, don’t miss Paula Hayes’ two “living artworks” in the MoMa lobby.

A Visit to Norman’s Orchids

In between the native chaparral and red tile-roofed homes, sits Norman’s Orchids, a tropical oasis in Southern California.
