In celebration of the 208th birthday of Charles Darwin, Dr. Felipe Zapata will take us on a tour through the garden focusing on plants from the places that Darwin visited on his travels and on the evolutionary history of the plant kingdom. Join us after the tour for a reception on the patio with cake and drinks.
Meet at 4:30 at the nest, reception at 5:30 on the patio. The tour will loop through the perimeter of garden, wear sturdy shoes and expect uneven terrain.
The UCLA Mathias Botanical Garden acknowledges the Gabrielino/Tongva peoples as the traditional land caretakers of Tovaangar (the Los Angeles basin and So. Channel Islands). As a promoter of nature at a California land grant institution, we pay our respects to the Honuukvetam (Ancestors), ‘Ahiihirom (Elders) and ‘Eyoohiinkem (our relatives/relations) past, present and emerging.
