Design:
Planterra Conservatory is a glass-enclosed, botanical garden venue. With European curved trusses, indoor koi ponds and a dramatic stone gabian archway, the Conservatory houses a wide collection of lush, exotic botanicals. Providing views of the stars on a clear night and soft, natural light during the day, Planterra Conservatory is a unique event space for weddings, corporate events and social functions. We are open year-round with our event season running September through May. Family-owned and operated, the Conservatory opened in 2010 amidst the redevelopment of Planterra’s original greenhouses, circa 1930s. The Pliska family imported the botanical garden building from Izegem, Belgium, where glass and iron greenhouse structures are crafted in the tradition of Baron Haussmann’s Parisian arcades.
