I visited the
Denver Botanic Garden yesterday. It has a fantastic conservatory with one of the best rainforest displays of any garden I've ever visited (including Kew and the San Francisco Conservatory of Flowers).
There was also a bonsai collection, a Japanese tea garden, herb and prairie gardens, a scripture garden and an amphitheater. Unfortunately I only had my phone with me to take pictures.

wonderful! How lovely to see all the orchids in a natural setting. I'm a big fan of thunbergia grandiflora, btw!
Just a little too cold for outdoors in Washington, but if you wanted to have a vine to keep your Passionflower company indoors Thunbergia might be a good choice.
