On a drippy Sunday morning I found myself looking for some indoor entertainment. I discovered it at the Stadtgärtnerei, the City Nursery of Zürich. The outside flower beds were empty, which came as no surprise, considering the time of year. What did come as a surprise were the hothouses. It was like stepping into a bit of the tropics in Switzerland. Exotic plants, beautiful orchids, a koi pond and much more were vying for my attention. Let me show you a sampling of what was there. Click on the pictures for an enlargement, if you so desire.


Oh, and let's not forget Tony, the Toucan. Maybe that is not his name, but it sounds good.

Back to Zürich Hbf. for more sightseeing.
