Bogor Botanic Garden's collection of orchids focuses primarily on wild species, numbering approximately 500 species from over 100 genera.
Grammatophyllum speciosum, the largest orchid species in the world is also part of the collection.
The specimens seen in the Garden's collections are either the original specimens gathered from the forest, or progeny of those specimens which have been propagated.
Although the orchid collection at the Bogor Botanic Garden began much earlier, it was not until 1927 that the collection was moved into greenhouses.
Beginning in 1994, the Bogor, Bali and Cibodas Gardens renovated their orchid houses.

The Botanic Garden Orchid section are divided into:
Glasshouses - separated among hybrid and non-hybrid orchid species.

Orchidarium - area for breeding orchids.
