A World of Plants August 22, 2009

'A World of Plants' showcases more than 3,000 species of plants found around the globe, from Africa to the Americas, all presented within 9 of the 11 glasshouse galleries of the Enid A. Haupt Conservatory, the largest Victorian-era glasshouse in the United States. Interpretive signage and cell phone, audio, and docent-led tours tell you about the interrelationships among the species, the way climate affects the evolution of plant life, and the interaction of plants with animal species, including humans.
