Brookgreen Gardens Exhibit 2

For the Into the Woods exhibition at Brookgreen Gardens, the Horticulture Department uses natural materials and plants to create a fantasy forest scene complete with a holiday feast for the animals as the centerpiece. The fantasy forest continues outside the window of the gallery to create the illusion of bringing the outdoors – indoors.
