Greenhouse Blooms

Submitted January 22, 2013 at 3:17 PM

The snow is deep and the temperatures literally freezing, so for this blog we decided to head indoors to our beautiful greenhouse. The tropical warmth of our state-of-the-art greenhouse and dedicated staff create a lush, welcoming and beautiful display.

Several species of Orchids are in bloom including the lovely Phaius sp.

If you'd like to see more, our greenhouse coordinator Michelle Cook will be leading a greenhouse tour on Thursday February 7th at 12:30, register soon as there are only 25 spots available!
Whether you decide to enjoy a winter respite with our greenhouse tour or take an invigorating walk above the inversion, come enjoy the all seasons beauty of Red Butte Garden.
