One of the great things about Plantasia is that no matter what the weather is like outside– snowy, windy, cold, rainy or gloomy– it’s always spring inside, thanks to the great landscapes on display.
It’s a great way to get ideas for your own landscapes.

Barb, I don’t know the answer. If you remember where you bought it, you might contact that vendor directly. Go to the exhibitor page at the Plantasia website to find contact information. Or contact the Cornell Cooperative Extension Master Gardeners in your county to see if they have advice. See the contact info for Cooperative Extension here. I hope that helps.
I purchased a bee, butterfly, ladybug house at Plantasia but there were no directions with it, facing a certain direction, height?
