Escape Winter at Krohn Conservatory

As the short, dreary days of winter set in, know you can always escape at Krohn Conservatory.

Maybe you go to Krohn’s holiday trains show, or their famed Butterfly Show — but then forget about it the rest of the year. You shouldn’t. 

In addition to the fact that there’s pretty much always a seasonal show happening at Krohn, there are also lots of permanent displays kids will love.

There’s an Orchid House with flowers of every hue. There are Palm, Tropical and Desert houses with carnivorous plants, cacti, cacao and banana trees. A tropical waterfall is the main attraction in the rain forest — along with several koi ponds featuring giant fish in bright white and orange hues.

If you’re looking to wear out your kids — there are several different areas to walk around.

Ramps, steps, a “cave” and bridges make for a fun and varied walking experience for kids. Send them on a hunt to find different colored flora or fruit on a tree. Kids love exploring — and Krohn Conservatory is a very kid friendly place to explore!

When your kids need a break, there are lots of places to sit and admire the plants.

If your kids eagerly await the holiday trains exhibit at Krohn, they’ll be pleased to know that there are trains at the conservatory that run all year long!
