(Tour) – Survival Secrets of Desert Plants

Saturday, May 3 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am

$20.00 – $35.00

Join us for a fascinating guided Garden tour that explores the incredible adaptations of plants from arid climates! Led by our longest-standing docent, Ersten Imaoka—who has been sharing his passion for the garden for 20 years, this tour will uncover the secrets behind how desert plants survive and thrive in some of the harshest environments on Earth.

Why are so many arid-climate plants sharp and spiny? How do rosette-shaped plants appear in deserts across the globe? And what tricks do these plants use to store and protect precious water for a not-so-rainy day? Ersten will guide you through a stunning array of resilient species, revealing the strategies they use to beat the heat.

Don’t miss this opportunity to see nature’s brilliance up close!

The walk will proceed rain or shine.
