Pollination by Design - Guided Walk - Brisbane Botanic Garden

Please note: Ticketing for this event will close at 12pm on Wednesday 6 November 2024.

Colour, shape, pattern, perfume… plants use a range of signals to attract their preferred pollinators. In a short workshop, you will learn about the spectrum of enticements, and the ways flowers reward their visitors. Afterwards, in an easy walk in the Botanic Gardens, you will test your powers of observation! A magnifying glass will be useful.
