It is not specifically comparable, but you might be interested in the way the Hirshhorn Art Museum is exhibiting the orchids in the current orchid exhibit at that museum. You can see photos at these 2 links:

Subject: [MUSEUM-L] Cacti in an art gallery
Hi All,
The Curator at my institution wants to include cacti in an upcoming installation that will exhibit both works from our permanent collection and loans. Does anyone have experience exhibiting plant life alongside artworks? Any advice on precautions and maintenance would be appreciated. My main concerns are infestation, climate changes caused by the organic nature of the plants, and the required maintenance of plants. Any information would help.
Leonard
