Gold medal winner at BUGA 2011

The time has finally come again! After a long time, Wichmann Orchideen once again took part in a major horticultural exhibition as part of an orchid show.

“The Grand Gold Medal of the German Federal Garden Show Society (DBG) is awarded for an exquisite orchid assortment, especially Paphiopedilum and Cattleya, in a flowering splendor and high quality that is unusual for the season.” This is stated in the certificate of the Federal Garden Show 2011. Of a total of 171 gold, silver and bronze medals awarded, Wichmann won 13 gold, 16 silver and 5 bronze medals. 400 exhibition plants were delivered by Wichmann alone and will be on display until 19.06. to admire.

One of Germany’s oldest and most renowned orchid companies.

It offers visitors an impressive variety of orchid species and hybrids across a 650 m² sales area. Today, it is run by the fourth generation of the family and is internationally renowned, in part due to awards won at exhibitions such as the Federal Horticultural Show.

This includes informative presentations and a tour of our greenhouses. In addition to orchids, our retail area offers a wide variety of green and flowering plants, as well as decorative accessories, planters, growing media, and orchid pots.
