Sculpture in the Gardens: World Pollinators Display

When we visited the Descanso Botanical Gardens, last week, we were fascinated by the artwork we found in the model train area.  It was called, "World Pollinators" and featured sculptures created with various plant material, depicting a selection of pollinators and their host plants.

Euglossa Bee and Vanilla Orchid

I don't usually put links on my posts, but, I am providing a link to the website that provides additional information about the sculptures, the pollinators and their host plants here.


I loved this display.  My photos aren't the best, but I hope you enjoyed the sculptures.
