The site of the former 'eggbox' council building has been transformed
- and the new Winter Garden has now been unveiled.
 |
| The
winter gardens has tropical plants of all colours and sizes |
The
garden contains 150 different species of plants, and 2,500 plants
in total.
The
Winter Garden forms the last public part of the "Heart of the
City" project, which also includes the Peace Gardens and the
Millennium Galleries.
Sheffielder
Michael Palin said of the garden, "The Winter Garden is absolutely
beautiful. The scale of it is very powerful."
There's
a coffee shop and a gift shop as part of the complex, and the garden
connects with the Millennium Galleries, too!
We
went along for a sneak preview of the plants, both in the daytime
and at the opening event.
