Lots of windows letting in the light and the warmth. HWW!

 

"Tropical Display Dome

 

Opened in 1977, the Tropical Display Dome at Brisbane Botanic Gardens Mt Coot-tha is a large geodesic (lattice) structure. It was built to display plants from the tropical regions of the world. This also includes plants that require a protected environment to thrive in Brisbane.

 

The climate-controlled atmosphere of the dome provides the plant collection with the right atmospheric conditions. It also protects them from potential threats found in their natural environment."
