The New York Botanical Garden’s annual “The Orchid Show” has returned for the 23rd year.

This year’s installation is called “The Orchid Show: Mr. Flower Fantastics Concrete Jungle."

NYBG collaborated with the anonymous NYC-based artist named Mr. Flower Fantastic.

The installation features NYC icons like the taxi, traffic cone, classic slice of pizza and more.

"The orchid family is the most diverse family of flowering plants for about 30,000 different species of orchids, and here we try to show the range of this wonderful family of plants," said Jennifer Bernstein, the CEO and president of the New York Botanical Garden.

Organizers said the display uses thousands of orchids to convey the spirit and energy of New York City.

The show is open to the public starting Feb. 7, and runs until April 26.
