With almost two thousand plant species represented in its exhibits and floral displays, the Conservatory joins a distinctive circle of modern American horticultural museums that are on the cutting edge of botanical interpretation and conservation education.
In this spectacular museum of living plants, immersive displays in five galleries engage visitors physically, intellectually and emotionally. These splendid displays not only delight, but deliver a moving message about the rapid changes in tropical habitats worldwide and efforts currently underway to conserve these special places.

The best part I liked about the conservatory was the Butterfly Zone, which is not a permanent exhibit. Walking around the butterfly area, making sure that I didn't accidently step on any butterflies, etc. that was the best.
The rest of the conservatory was the usual variety of orchids and tropical plants, a pond at the end, more plants, flowers, the usual. Without the butterfly exhibit I think my addmission fee could have been better spent elsewhere.
The building is definitely worth taking a picture in front of though!
