This exhibit is currently closed for renovations, but we look forward to opening for the summer 2026 season. Please stay tuned for a date announcement. 

This immersive exhibit features several species of native butterflies and moths with a variety of native pollinator-friendly plants.
 
Panels throughout the exhibit educate visitors about pollinators' role in helping us grow the food we eat, their life cycles, how to create pollinator-friendly backyards and more. An education table in the exhibit gives visitors a chance to interact with BioPark staff and participate in hands-on learning.
 

Location

The exhibit is located on the west side of the Botanic Garden.
