Bring your binoculars too and observe over 50 species of tropical birds that call the Bloedel Conservatory home, including a pair of spectacular red macaws, "Maria" and "Carmen", and our ever-popular pink cockatoo, "Charlie".

A wonderful selection of foliage and flowering potted plants will also be on SALE at fabulous prices and just in time for Valentine's Day gift buying!
