Affectionately known as the Pyramids, these four unusually shaped greenhouses are a magic window into a botanical wonderland, no matter what the weather is outside. Three of the pavilions, as they are more formally known, are devoted to plants from the tropical, arid, and temperate regions of the world. The fourth pavilion, the conservatorys show piece, contains ever-changing beautiful displays of flowering plants. The conservatory uses thousands of plants to build these displays, each with countless blossoms-always colourful, fragrant, and fresh. As well, quail, finches, tropical birds and small animals enliven the pavilions. Special activities, theme days, and holiday celebrations brighten your visit throughout the year.
Open Sun-Wed 11-9, Thurs-Sat 11-6. Admission is charged. Wheelchair accessible. Food services. 9626-96 A Street, Edmonton. .
