The GLOW Fades

After a couple months of GLOW at South Coast Botanic Garden, it's time to look back at the light and the music. (For those who didn't attend - it's a walking / music / plant / light show with a water theme)

GLOW – at SCBG

Glow is happening at SCBG until January 10th, 2021. If you want to take a break from being stuck indoors - or take a break from more 'normal' plants - swing on by the garden to see the foliage in a new light! (Yes, that was a pun)
