Tropical Extravaganza is a celebration of all things bright, beautiful, and, of course, tropical. See amazing displays of tropical plants and flowers against the lush green backdrop of the Princess of Wales Conservatory.
This year's festival is inspired by the 'forces of nature' - fire, air, water and earth. See the lush tropical landscape of the glasshouse contrasted with vibrant floral displays - fiery reds, yellows and oranges, and shimmering silvers and blues. Discover the fascinating ways plants depend on and balance the effects of these elements.
