Event details

Step into real Christmas spirit in the tropical warmth of the Greenhouses in Botanical Garden. Among exotic plants from distant lands, you can wander through the climate zones and enjoy the festive season.

  • Family treasure hunt with the greenhouse gnome, with short stories about Christmas plants and traditions, from spices and fruit to the classic festive plants.
  • Weekend guided chats with one of the greenhouses' educators, who tell the stories behind plants such as vanilla, cinnamon, the poinsettia and the Christmas tree.
  • A special guided tour of Christmas plants after closing time, with tastings, which requires separate booking.

Admission to the greenhouses is free, and the on-site café is open from 10 a.m. every day if you need a bite between discoveries.
