The Winter Garden

This leisurely plant paradise in a central location is a forever favourite of both Helsinki residents and tourists.

The lush Winter Garden brings joy to visitors all year round, and seasonal flowering plants add variety to the floral splendour. At Christmas time, you can witness the blooming of the poinsettia, azalea and belladonna-lily. Easter is the time for wild daffodils and tulips to burst into flowers.

This historic house of plants features more than 200 different plants. The oldest plant is a camellia tree that is over 130 years old.

Since its establishment in 1893, the garden has been open to the public free of charge.

In front of the Winter Garden is a Rose Garden where roses in groups bloom from July to September.
