Marvel at the beauty and complexity of seeds and seed vessels at this exhibit by the Northern California Society of Botanical Artists on display at the UC Botanical Garden. Also at the garden this month: a tour showing how plants travel. Learn all about botanical fruit and seed adaptations, like slingshots, parachutes, hitchhikers, helicopters, and other clever mechanisms for propelling plant seeds around the garden. Both events are free with garden admission. Info: here.
