Welcome to the jungle! The refurbished Palm House holds the Concervatory's Jungle Exhibit. From floor to ceiling this space measures a lofty 24 feet.

This placard promotes environmental conservation. Various views into this jungle setting provide the necessary insight to understand the importance of not destroying our planet for quick profits.
