FEATURED EVENTS

Escape the chilly Nashville temperatures by visiting Orchids in the Mansion at Cheekwood and immerse yourself in an abundance of tropical orchid arrangements. The winter celebration will truly take over the historic home in its fifth year. White and purple Phalaenopsis prevail throughout the displays and emerge from rich layers of tropical foliage. Orchids will sweep up the grand staircase in the foyer and lead visitors to the central experience on the Loggia, where the florals rise off the floor and suspend from the ceiling in an immersive cloud of blooming orchids. Dendrobiums, Oncidiums, and Cymbidiums add a diversity of form and texture to the arrangements that activate almost every space on the historically decorated first floor.
