The annual orchid festival is back at Kew for its 30th anniversary and this year’s theme is China, a country home to vast landscapes and incredible plant life. China is home to 10% of the world’s known plant species and over 1700 known species of orchids. You can get a little taste of China’s varied landscapes, predominantly the province of Yunnan, and native wildlife across the different zones inside the Princess of Wales Conservatory. As well as an array of orchid displays, there’ll be a range of plant sculptures on show, including a Chinese dragon, koi carp, pandas and cranes, alongside archways referencing the Chinese zodiac.
