I'm going to do a little tasting here at the hotel coming up . But first you can't come to Montecito in Santa Barbara without checking out the many places to buy orchids . The streets are lined with greenhouses originally introduced here in the early 19 hundreds .
And this city is such an orchid mecca . There are over three dozen varieties named for Santa Barbara . Now , if you really want to see the hot spots and hidden gems of this 42 mile city , you may need a little help or even a trolley tour .
Yeah , it's , I didn't know , I didn't know that . Here are some orchids . This is orchid seed .
There you go , folks . This is one of the most spectacular views here in the city of Santa Barbara . Looking off to the left hand side is going to be this spectacular view of the Santa Barbara Mission mountains all up in the foreground .
So this is a flask . This is how we grow all orchids . Now , this is , we have a laboratory .
