Los Angeles Landscape History Report
The Garden’s Herbarium Curator, Dr. Anthony Baniaga, contributed to a report that brought together geographers, historians, biologists, and representatives of the Chumash, Tataviam, and Gabrieleño tribes to understand historical landscapes in the LA region.
This research can shape efforts to restore and protect landscapes in LA today. Dr. Baniaga’s chapter examines spontaneously growing plants in parkways to illuminate urban biodiversity.
