Butterflies in Bloom

Butterflies are available 10AM - 4PM all week long. They are the most active on warm, sunny, days. This is when you're the most likely to see them in flight. On cloudy, cooler days the butterflies are restful. You're more likely to see them resting on a visitor's palm or clustering with their own species. This is a wonderful photo opportunity!

The butterflies have been emerging for weeks at the time the exhibit opens. Chrysalis continue to arrive, and butterflies will emerge into the conservatory, throughout the length of the exhibit. Emergence varies.

There is no additional charge to see the butterflies beyond the regular admission cost of the garden. Daily admission is $10.00 for adults. Kids 6-17 and students (with i.d.) are just $2.00. Kids (5 and under) are free.  Spaces are limited. To ensure availability we recommend purchasing your tickets in advance.

There is approximately a .25 mile walk to the conservatory from the entrance. Wheelchairs are permitted. A barrier-free pathway is available (inquire at the front desk.)

Photography is allowed and encouraged. Please be mindful of tripods and other equipment as some walkways are narrower than others.
