| The Conservatory of Flowers at Golden Gate Park, San Francisco, was California's first municipal greenhouse -- completed in 1879.
The Conservatory is patterned after the Conservatory, Kew Gardens, England. It is an example of late Victorian style using early techniques of mass production and assembly of simple glass units. Flowers in the formal gardens are amazingly colorful in the damp, cool weather of Summer. A City Birds digital photo. |
