Tropical Conservatory
One of the central buildings on the campus, The Tropical Conservatory holds some of the most valuable specimens in The Gardens’ collection. With over 2,500 plants in this structure and staff greenhouse stock rotating in, The Tropical Conservatory depends on a sophisticated system of light, air, and water. The infrastructure of the Tropical Conservatory needed to be renovated without destroying the exoskeleton lath house. And the beloved koi pond in the interior needed some significant maintenance to keep the fish healthy and generate additional humidity. We are grateful for Jennifer and Anton Segerstrom’s leadership gift to help restore the Tropical Conservatory and preserve the botanical collection.
“The Tropical Conservancy is an iconic structure and an important element of Sherman Library & Gardens. As long-time supporters, we appreciate how Grow The Gardens carefully preserves the past while boldly moving into the future. Sherman Library & Gardens is a very special place in Orange County and we are proud to be part of this effort.”
