Plants are great, but it's the people that make our garden special.
Join us for a behind-the-scenes look at Olbrich’s Blooming Butterflies exhibit! Work side-by-side with staff to feed the butterflies in the Bolz Conservatory. Learn where the butterflies come from and how they are cared for. We will release some butterflies if they are ready to fly! Ages 5-11 with an adult; adult attends free.
Blooming Butterflies features up to 19 different species of free flying butterflies in the tropical Bolz Conservatory. Visitors make connections with these fluttering friends while learning about the butterfly life cycle. Two chrysalis cases provide opportunities to possibly witness a butterfly emerge from a chrysalis!
