About Tivoli Park Glasshouse
The glasshouse in Tivoli Park has been run by the Ljubljana Botanical Garden since the garden’s bicentenary in 2010. Its permanent display of tropical plants includes many you use every day but have never seen growing, such as pineapple, black pepper, coffee and vanilla orchids, along with bromeliads with spectacular flowers. Our advice: a warm, green stop on a winter walk through Tivoli.
