The Outdoor Biome
Covering 13 hectares, 13 years ago this was a barren landscape 15m below the water table with no level ground, no soil and no plants. Today you can discover crops that provide foods, fuels, medicines and materials in the Biome that has the sky for a roof and beautifully landscaped gardens.The Mediterranean Biome
Explore the sights, scents and stories of the Mediterranean, South Africa and California through plants such as citrus, olives, herbs and vines, South African proteas and aloes and Californian annuals, poppies and lupins.
The Rainforest Biome
Experience the tallest rainforest in captivity as you stroll through the steamy jungle of Malaysia, West Africa and South America. Plants and crops in the Rainforest Biome include bananas, coffee, bromeliads (orchids), balsa and mahogany. Feeling adventurous? Check out our Rainforest Lookout aerial viewing platform for an amazing birdâÂÂs eye view of the whole Biome!
