Foellinger-Freimann Botanical Conservatory



The Foellinger-Freimann Botanical Conservatory is located in the heart of downtown Fort Wayne, Indiana.  It was opened in 1983 and covers a total of 100,000 square feet.  It features over 1200 plants from 500 different species.
The conservatory features a 25,000 square foot seasonal garden, a tropical garden (top picture) with a gorgeous waterfall, orchids, and palms, and a desert garden.  There is also a lovely outdoor area.

The conservatory is open Tuesday through Saturday from 10-5, Thursday from 10-8, and Sunday from noon - 4.  Admission is $5.00 per adult and $3.00 per child.


Before I go, I thought I'd share a video of a recording from a recital I recently did. I shared it on my other blog and thought you'd like to listen, too.

    I'm showering (metaphorically!) in this beautiful peaceful music!
    Thank you for offering it.
    I liked the garden too...

    lovely music as a backdrop to a lovely garden. I imagined I was strolling along in a spring symphony

      I hadn't thought that the music would be a good backdrop to strolling through a garden. But you're right!

    Gorgeous gardens. I may be meeting a friend in Ft Wayne in July, so am making a note, as this is something I think we would both enjoy touring.

      Going through a tough time in my life right now, so I'm not here very much. Hopefully once I get settled into my new life I'll be more regular.
