Join us for White Christmas in the Cockrell Butterfly Center!

During the holiday season, the rainforest conservatory will be filled with hundreds of graceful white tropical butterflies, including a favorite among visitors, the rice paper butterfly, and the breathtaking white morpho.

Beautiful white flowers will transform the conservatory into a tropical winter wonderland and holiday decorations will make the season come to life! You won’t want to miss this unique holiday display.
