    Visit this floral oasis when you have had enough of the kitschy tourist spots. Although small inside, the greenhouse is warm, lush and serene. Say hello to the many turtles that swim in the pond by the entrance. 🐢 Be sure to visit the grounds outside where you will find miniature houses of various styles, bridges, and a train track. The gift shop offers a small but nice selection of floral and gardening related gifts.

    We went there for cherry blossom. All the trees are in full bloom. Great scenic place to spend sometime with friends and family. The park was full of tulips too. It was really beautiful. 7th May 2022.

    I recently visited the Floral Showhouse, and although the building was closed, we could still enjoy the beautiful gardens surrounding the area. Despite the disappointment of not being able to explore the building, we still had a lovely time taking in the scenery and admiring the colourful flowers and plants. The gardens were well-maintained and offered a serene and peaceful atmosphere. Overall, I would highly recommend visiting the Floral Showhouse and taking a stroll through the gardens, even if the building itself is closed. It's a great way to appreciate the beauty of nature and enjoy a relaxing outing.

    Pretty neat and really well maintained floral showhouse. It is split into 2 parts - a garden with miniature sculptures, and a flower exhibition. The display of flowers were really well thought through and the display is very beautiful. We really enjoyed this place. We were only aware of this location as the entrance fee was included in the Wander Pass. We also had some time to spare, allowing us to visit attractions that is not the Falls. However, if you are limited on time, you should focus on the attractions related to the Falls and give this a skip.

    I love any kind of botanical garden, and I think the staff here are really amazing. But I can't say I totally recommend a visit here. From the outside, it looks like there's much more! But the back greenhouses are for growing things and it's only the front three rooms, plus the entrance building and the outside path to the miniature village that are open. At least it's well-priced for what it is, less than $10, but I'm not sure it's worth the extra walking out this far. If you're parking nearby, maybe, but not if you walked down from your hotel like me. It does have a really sweet gift shop. Lots of flower umbrellas and gardening gifts.

    Entry is 7 dollars per adult and 5 for kids above six years! Loved the miniature Houses though i do wish there was more light to appreciate them! They have tree houses too in the village exhibit as well as a train! The hands encasing the globe is also good After seeing the village you can go to the floral exhibit which houses cactii rubber plants and myriad other species! A stream runs through the central area connecting both exhibits and has a few fishes and a turtle! The washrooms are quite clean

    It is $8 CAD per person. I don’t think it’s expensive. Look at my pics… this is hard work! We were very satisfied with everything. It is kindda small but it is beautiful! Totally worth it!

    Great greenhouse and outdoor gardens. Friendly staff. Model train line goes around the outdoor garden, but unfortunately was not running during our visit. Miniature houses outside were quite interesting to look at. Beautiful plants and flowers. Was a bit short of an experience though.

    It's a must see. Upon entrance I got disappointed that only two out of 6(?) greenhouses are available for viewing. But there's so much to see in their tropical one! The plant collection is outstanding, with multiple species from different parts of the World mainly from Africa and Madagascar. It takes a highly skilled professional to arrange so many plants so harmoniously. Everywhere you look there's a very interesting plant. It took me a good hour to go through the main greenhouse. The outside is also very interesting with miniature houses. Overall, this floral showcase is absolutely beautiful. The plants and the place are obviously being taken good care of by skilled staff. I enjoyed every minute there. Highly recommend it.

    The botanical garden and floral showhouse is definitely a Must-see! You'll find yourself immersed in lush vegetation and vibrant, colorful flowers. It was so relaxing and invigorating just spending several minutes in this piece of paradise on earth.

    Visited during the evening and winter (but no snow). Nice place if you like flowers. Nice short walk around. Will return for a visit during summer & warmer weather to enjoy the out doors.

    Top slot! Nice place to relax. I wish they would play ambient music in there. Instead they had "Candle In the Wind" Muzak on repeat. The plants were real friendly though.

    This place is extremely beautiful during Christmas time. There is lots of paid parking close by. The staff were extremely friendly and gave a quick breakdown of the facilities. The tickets are cheap, but I suggest just buying them at the door it's easier then purchasing online. In the winter there are two large greenhouses you can explore and a quick outside walkthrough. Takes about 30-45 to explore the whole place. Will be going back to see what they have in the summer.

    We visited December 10 and we parked at the power plant next day. That is where we bought the Wonder passes for 6 places including this place for $49. The parking at the power plant is $35 for the day. We parked there and did 4 of the places on our pass. This place is small but there’s a miniature town in the back and in the summer the grounds are full of beautiful plants and flowers. We went in December so there’s not much to see outside except miniature village. And they have nice lights and trees decorated. And they only charge $8. The gift shop has lots of unique stuff, jewelry, hats, Christmas ornaments, cups, garden stuff. For the price this place is worth the look and you get beautiful selfies and portraits with the poinsettias.

    Beautiful Poinsettia on show now. Plus Christmas lights in the model village and surrounding park. Well worth a visit. Buy a season ticket for year round enjoyment.

    Niagara Parks Floral Showcase always does a beautiful job with their indoor floral displays. They have a greenhouse that has a permanent exhibit of more tropical plants (the heat is always on in this half of the building) and it's neat to see these plants change over the year. The other half of the greenhouse building has rotating exhibits of beautiful floral displays (the chrysanthemum exhibit was just coming to an end on my last visit, next they'll install the Christmas poinsetta exhibit). Outside they have a winding path through a mini house exhibit with some outdoor gardens during the summer months.

    We purchased a package to see behind the falls and the package included the floral showhouse. We were able to visit this the same day as it's very close to the falls. There are 3 showrooms. 2 indoor and 1 outdoor. The showrooms are small but full with colorful flowers. They are well maintained and clean. Unfortunately due to the rain we were unable to visit the outdoor showroom. Gift shop was super expensive and not worth it in my opinion.

    This place was just simply beautiful. The birdhouses were great. Outdoor train set was awesome. The flamingo sculptures inside were my favorite part. Way too much beauty to even put into words. A must see if in Niagra Falls Canada.

    1st timer. What a peaceful place. I find peace in plants and flowers even though I do not have a green thumb lol. The garden was beautiful. The first room we went into was nice. There were more plants than flowers and some of the plants seemed to be dying, which I’m thinking it just wasn’t there season. The second room was filled with poinsettias which are always nice but not really what I was looking forward to seeing. We didn’t see the outdoor show of flowers because it was just too cold. Overall I’d give this visit a 7/10. It’s probably better in the spring/summer time to visit. Thank you floral showroom for a nice visit!

    We unfortunately missed the show when we entered as it was closing hours but Cora was kind enough to talk about the turtles in the pond and even show pictures of my niece, thank you for sharing! The store gift shop and set up is beautiful too!

  • 5/5 Jan G. 4 months ago on Google
    Gorgeous with the poinsettias, the twig trees and even the beautiful succulents in the other greenhouse. The gentleman told us that the displays are better at night when everything is lit up, but we couldn't get back at night. Admission was about $8.50 per per person.

    Three or four types of plants are there , one of them is really having nice smell . Clean . Nice to do a walk in the morning at 06.30 . Paid outdoor parking .

  • 5/5 Tracy N. 10 months ago on Google
    Well-kept floral showhouse. It's not very big but it is beautiful! They also have very cute miniature house models.

  • 5/5 Terry P. 10 months ago on Google
    Lovely gardens outside to browse around for free. The inside greenhouses are quite stunning especially in the winter, Christmas and Easter. Parking is paid, however a yearly pass for two different cars (liscence plate numbers) for almost all the Niagara Parks lots is only 40 dollars for a full year for both cars! That's what we have done for three years now and it's well worth it.

    I’m bummed after reading the reviews below. We went on Saturday ( the 24th) and were done touring the place in 10 minutes. We looped around twice in that time. The price doesn’t match the experience. Perhaps there’s package deal out there that includes the Botanical Park , Butterfly Conservatory and here? If you’re looking for something to do to pass time this is a great option, just don’t get disappointed like it appears the rest of us have. Side note to owner(s): Perhaps free admission going forward with a recommendation to donate ?

  • 5/5 Trena K. 10 months ago on Google
    Beautiful display of succulents and tropical like plants. I came in early June, so the outdoor garden was just starting to come to life. It was a short but beautiful tour.

  • 5/5 Melissa M. 10 months ago on Google
    We bought this ticket as a package. I recommend the park package. It was great! The hydrangeas are amazing. Nicely done. Not very big facility but flowers were lovely.

  • 5/5 F. Z. 11 months ago on Google
    It's a really pretty space that's fairly kid safe. We went during a time when some of the exhibits were closed so it was quick to complete. The space is a bit narrow for strollers and people. Outside the showcase was some lovely mini tree houses, a koi pond and miniature train track and houses.

  • 1/5 Forest L. 10 months ago on Google
    Not nearly as good as I had hoped. Went there with my wife and from the outside the place looks massive; however, once you get inside you see that it is only two small greenhouses and then a tour of miniature houses off to the side. While the displays in the greenhouses were nice we were disappointed to see that some of the flowers were actually spray painted and taped together. For the cost that they charge to get in I feel like there could be some more effort to turn the place into a really nice attraction but for now it appears that it is just a cash grab. Skip this one and go down the road to the botanical Gardens and butterfly conservatory. Basically, the same price for hours of fun vs the 10 minutes of disappointment.

  • 4/5 Juan M. 1 year ago on Google
    It's small, but compacted with a lot of amazing plants in the 2 greenhouses they have. They have a variety of succulents and cactus that I was very impressed by. My favorite part was the mini village that they have on their grounds. I recommend it to people that don't want to walk much as there is benches to sit down along the way, and it's easy to walk through.

  • 5/5 Amber 2 years ago on Google
    It was a really nice scenery. It has many nice flowers, miniature houses and pond. If you did go to the butterfly conservatory first it is smaller in comparison but still a great place to see. The greenhouses smelled amazing with all the different scents of flowers.

  • 3/5 Alexander S. 1 year ago on Google
    It's a very small showhouse. It has some nice displays to look at, but none of them have any descriptions as to what your looking at. It is also quite small for the fee paid considering there is a free botanical garden a short drive away

  • 4/5 maria jose C. 1 year ago on Google
    The pictures on the website and what is at site is slightly different. It not so amusing, bit since I like succulents were a good place to see many different types. Love the little frogs in the garden

  • 5/5 Tricia F. 2 years ago on Google
    My daughter and I had a wonderful evening stroll through the Floral Showcase both inside and out. We loved the stunning light displays, minature village with train and Poinsettia display! We even got to see Santa ride past us on his decorated bicycle signing Christmas carols. A truly enchanting place to visit. You will definitely find yourself smiling and filled with the holiday spirit! I highly recommend a visit here 🎄 🌟 😍
