The tropical and dessert domes are both really cool. I've only ever been to the holiday exhibit in the rotation done but it was beautiful. Also highly recommend the farmer's market in the greenhouse in the winter; since they have electrical hookups there are vendors there that don't make it to as many markets in the summer months.
Not just a boring Botanic Garden, but three different beautifully curated, interactive, fun and themed domes/gardens! My favorite is definitely the show garden, which was decorated with the Christmas theme that is absolutely magical. Who would expect to find a sleigh or organ in the midst of a Botanical Garden!? It feels like I've walked through the wardrobe and entered Narnia! There are activity sheets for you to pick out interesting or peculiar things in the gardens, which I thought was an absolute great idea, not only interesting and interactive for children but highly educational for adults too! Easily the best Botanic Garden I've been to!
The fact that it’s a domed conservatory in the middle of the city is quite cool to me ! I loved the 2 domes out of the 3 that were up ( tropical and desert). It doesn’t take a lot of time to do but you could stay there all day and just admire the amount of work that goes into making the plants what they are. I think it’s one of the top conservatories I’ve been to!
This visit was completed with a school trip, but it was pretty awesome. My favorite was the tropical dome. The flowers, humidity and plant life made it a soothing and interesting environment. They have fantastic cacti in the desert done. The last dome was decked out for Christmas and was like a fantasy land. I look forward to going again.
Such a wonderful and beautiful indoor gardens! We checked out warm tropical gardens in the 1st dome, the desert garden in the 2nd dome, and the Christmas garden in the 3rd dome (which transitions 5 different times a year based on the season). They had 3 scavenger hunts for the kids to check out in each garden (pick up at the entrance where you pay admission). Myself and my children loved visiting, learning, observing, and playing in the gardens. Admission is reasonably priced! We will definitely be back again to visit! A definite must see, GREAT for ALL ages!
