The Flower Exhibition Centre is located in a greenhouse beside Ridge Park, and it displays orchids, begonias, anthuriums and other plants throughout the year. It is at its best in spring (March–May), when the international flower show is held. Admission costs about 10–20 rupees. The center is small, and a visit takes around 30 minutes.
