The Calyx is a glasshouse and exhibition space inside Sydney’s Royal Botanic Garden, entered through Morshead Fountain Gate. Its living green wall and changing floral displays give you a close look at plants in an indoor setting, with videos to watch and seating for a quiet pause. The space also hosts exhibitions and events. It is compact, so pair a visit with a walk through the surrounding garden rather than setting aside a long stretch of your day.
A living exhibition inside the garden
The Calyx sits within the Royal Botanic Garden and combines a plant-filled indoor space with exhibitions and event areas. Its vertical greenery is a central draw, with ferns attached to a large wall. Displays can change over time, so what is on view depends on the exhibition during your visit.
Videos play in a cycle, and seating gives you a place to pause and watch. The Calyx is a small stop, so it works well as part of a longer walk through the Botanic Garden.
Finding the entrance
The entrance is at Morshead Fountain Gate, Gate A, in the Royal Botanic Garden, Sydney. Check the opening days and times before you go, since the venue is not open every day. The Calyx also hosts special exhibitions and private events, including weddings.
