[Asia Economy (Sejong) Reporter Jeong Il-woong] The National Sejong Arboretum announced on the 25th that it will hold a special exhibition called 'Orchid Salon' featuring Eastern and Western orchids at the Central Hall of the Four Seasons Exhibition Greenhouse from May 25 to June 6.

The special exhibition was planned to promote arboretum and garden culture as well as popularize companion plants. The exhibition will display over 70 rare Eastern and Western orchid species, including pigeon-shaped orchids with spread wings and vanilla orchids.

Additionally, various attractions such as a piano photo zone recreating a scene from the movie 'Madame Proust's Secret Garden' and the Wardian Case, the precursor to today's terrariums, will be available.

The Wardian Case was developed by 19th-century British naturalist Nathaniel Bagshaw Ward to ensure the safe transport and management of plants.

Park Won-soon, Exhibition Planning and Operations Director at Sejong Arboretum, said, "As public fatigue from COVID-19 grows, we hope visitors can relieve their fatigue through companion plants, especially beautiful orchids."
