Mardi Gras Morpho: Butterfly House to reopen with indoor, carnival season fun amid cooler temps


ST. LOUIS - The cold can't stop the Butterfly House from 'letting the good times roll' this carnival season!


'Morpho Mardi Gras' will kickoff the garden's grand re-opening on January 30th after a month full of maintenance and upkeep.

Guests can submerge their senses with views of beautiful butterflies fluttering throughout the over 150 tropical plants and the sweet sound of jazz music to get in the spirit. Amid a season of bundling up, Butterfly House is offering a warm way to explore, all while learning something new.

Magical memories are waiting to be made among the Mardi Gras masks, beads and blue Morpho Butterflies.

I paid a visit to the Butterfly House over the summer to uncover even more events and experiences that the garden has to offer. There is plenty to see and lots to learn, though just one visit is simply not enough. I was able to catch and release a butterfly all on my own and guests can do the same. A 'core memory experience,' one might say! This is just one of the extra special add-ons that guests can opt in for when purchasing tickets and packages.

If hands-on activities with most beautiful bug isn't a big enough accomplishment to check off the bucket list, there is plenty more where that came from.

The 'Morpho Mardi Gras' experience will run from January 30th through February 21st and it is included with the cost of admission.
