The Conservatory
The garden store is nice, but when it is really grey and dismal outside, the conservatory is even better! We went and got a tropical fix of Orchids. YAY Conservatory
Thanks so much anonymous, Susan and Clarice! It is a wonderful building, I may post some more picrtures of it in the upcoming days if I have time to post at all.
The conservatory was built in 1903 and opened in 1904.
YAY the Conservatory! Interesting 'pinched' outer edges of cymbidium petals!
ReplyDeleteSuch a nice building. I really enjoy photos of unusual architecture. The flowers are gorgeous too.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. How old is it?
