Flowers of Volunteer Park Conservatory:
Blooming Month by Month
Book by Sara L. Chapman
You can almost smell the flowers in this photo tour of Seattle’s hidden gem, the Volunteer Park Conservatory, one of the last Victorian glass conservatories in the U.S.A.

See the Conservatory’s signature blend of perfect horticultural technique with world-class, creative plant combinations. Browse among the ravishing displays as they change throughout the year. Scroll down for sample pages.
Complete with the common and scientific names of plants and including a comprehensive index. Helpful and inspiring to armchair gardeners and plant professionals alike.
