A Party to Connect People to Plants; Slipping Away
Friends of Spring Newsletter, 2020 WCBG WELLESLEY COLLEGE BOTANIC GARDENS WELLESLEY COLLEGE A Party to Connect People to Plants n the evenings of February 11 and 12, the Wellesley College community welcomed back the tradition of an annual greenhouse Light Show after a hiatus of two years. First of its kind in the Global Flora Oconservatory, this year’s Light Show was themed “Cultural Connections” to celebrate the diversity of plants in Global Flora and their cultural significance to people around the world. Dressed by colorful theatrical lighting and spotlights, highlighted plants showcased characteristics that one might not otherwise notice during the day. Many were surprised to see, for example, that the foliage of Sensitive Plant (Mimosa pudica) closes at night to protect pollen and reduce water loss when the leaves are not photosynthesizing.
