The Botanical Gardens gave itself a birthday present on its 200th anniversary in the form of the Calyx, billed as Sydney’s newest attraction.
The Calyx replaces the pyramid hothouse with a donut shaped appearance. Furthermore it has added a exhibition space and a ‘moat’ containing an island of topiary monkeys.
Currently showing at the exhibition space is an exhibition entitled the Sweet Addiction – the Botanic Story of Chocolate– about the Chocolate Plant.
