The exhibition of tropical butterflies in the Fata Morgana Greenhouse is an amazing spectacle and an extraordinary experience for the whole family. Come and admire the beauty of butterfly wings fluttering all around you.
During the exhibition, you will witness the magical and mysterious transformation from a chrysalis into an adult butterfly. If you're lucky, you might discover caterpillars among the plants.
|
Visit us and discover the differences and exciting facts about the developmental stages of butterflies. The transformation: of egg - caterpillar - chrysalis – butterfly, differs for each species. Sometimes, the caterpillar or chrysalis is even more beautiful than the butterfly itself.
A new butterfly model will be displayed at the exhibition – the butterfly developmental model. You will see the size differences - from miniature eggs and giant caterpillars to a butterfly with a huge wingspan.
As in previous years, we will import the pupae from a butterfly farm in Stratford-upon-Avon, where we have a guarantee of quality species. Over five thousand specimens will be on display during the show.
