Conservatory

The conservatory looks and feels like a tropical rain forest, which is where many of its show-stopping orchids and bromeliads were collected by the Gardens’ research and conservation scientists. Arranged in a spectacular collage of color and design, the plants feature marvelous adaptations like insect-catching pitchers and spiny trunks. Some climb upwards to the greenhouse roof, while others cascade over the walls of hanging baskets. Since the plants bloom at different times, each visit will yield a completely new experience.
