Explore
the Garden
What’s so hot about the Sun Pavilion? Here are some shiny findings that will prick up your head. With over 1,000 desert plants comprising some 100 different species and varieties, the Sun Pavilion is nothing short of extraordinary.
Most of the cacti originate from
The Americas
Most of the Euphorbias come from
Africa and Madagascar
The fittest cacti can live up to
300 years
Mexican Columnar Cacti
These spectacular plants are capable of surviving for months without rain! Their secret? The ribs that run down their thick trunks allow them to expand and contract according to how much water they need.
African Euphorbias
These large succulents may look like cacti but are actually members of the rubber tree family. These plants produce a special toxic latex to protect their moisture-rich tissues from hungry and thristy predators
Turk's Cap
The Brazilian Turk's Cap simply fascinates! Mature plants develop wool and bristle-covered spheres at the top, resembling a traditional Turkish fez—that's how these plants got their endearing name!
Brain Cactus
With curvy stems that wrap and twist around each other, it’s obvious how the Brain Cactus got its name. The specimens displayed at the Sun Pavilion are special horticultural cultivars (Mammilllaria elongata 'Monstruosa') selected from plants that grow sideways instead of upwards, giving rise to its unusual appearance!
Connect with Nature with Gardens’ Audio Tour
Tour the outdoor gardens in comfort on board the Garden Cruiser Audio Tour. Featuring an engaging audio commentary, this 20-minute ride brings visitors to various places of interest at Bay South Garden and introduces some unusual flora encountered along the way.
