Each has found hundreds of similar and unique ways to thrive in arid environments where most life forms are unable to survive. This tour will examine the clever adaptations and beauty of the many fascinating forms. Forever Balboa Park offers thematic park tours that focus on the park’s unique biodiversity and highlight the park’s horticultural wonders on the first Saturday of each month.
