Live butterflies fly around you in this oversized terrarium. A great thing to do in the winter to escape the cold and feel like you are in the jungle. A nice experience but don't plan on more than about an hour here. In the better weather, you can extend your visit here by walking the parks surrounding the museum as they are part of the Horticulture School .
