The North Jersey Orchid Society’s annual show is happening now at Rutgers University.

There are a variety of beautiful displays created by volunteers and hobbyists. There are also vendors from all around the world.

"We are all brought together by our love of these beautiful plants. And we grow them sometimes to perfection, sometimes to certain death,” says show chairwoman Carrie Buchman. “We enjoy it tremendously. And sharing that love with the public is what we like to do."

The Orchid Show runs through Sunday at the Douglas Student Center in New Brunswick. Admission and tickets are free.
