The Winter Garden has been a recreational meeting place for the residents of Helsinki for over a century. No matter what season it is, the elaborate oasis of exotic plants invites you to take a tour of the greenery.
Blossoms in three separate pavilions
The Winter Garden houses over 200 different plants. The palm room holds not only palms but also island pines and over hundred-year-old camellia trees, which are the oldest plants in the Winter Garden. In the western wing, there are saw palmettos, King Sago Palms, a noble bat tree and some houseplants of old times. The cactus room is a realm of succulent plants and cacti.
Around Christmas time, azaleas, tulips, amaryllises, hyacinths and lilies of the valley are all in bloom. Easter is the time of daffodils and tulips.
