Reichenbachia: 19th Century Orchid Illustrations

In celebration of spring, Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden is pleased to present 19th Century Botanical Illustrations of Orchids. Dr. Arthur Burke, an expert grower of rare and unusual orchids, has loaned to the Garden examples from his collection of the Reichenbachia—large-scale chromolithographs from the 19th century made from plantsman Frederick Sander’s 1894 compilation of hand-painted, life-size illustrations of 192 exotic orchids.
