The wonderful world of orchids
You can not believe your eyes in the tropical gardens of the
Orchideeën Hoeve. Some 2,500 species of orchids in various forms of
appearance are displayed standing and hanging in the glass house in
Luttelgeest. The village in the Noordoostpolder gained world wide fame
through the orchids. An ever increasing number of visitors from Holland
and abroad appreciate the 2,5 ha wide attraction.

Many colorful, blossoming plants supply the butterflies with nectar, numerous winding streams provide for their moisture, i.e. a special and renewing garden. Visit our website for a preview >
