Wed, 16 May 2012 00:00:00 -0700

Step way back in time as the Conservatory of Flowers in Golden Gate Park transports visitors to a real life land of the lost in its newest exhibit Plantosaurus Rex, a living paradise of prehistoric plants with models of the dinosaurs that roamed the earth millions of years ago. Walk in a lush landscape of giant ferns and spiky horsetails, and learn about the symbiotic relationship between ancient flora and fauna as you glimpse a stegosaurus foraging for leaves, come eye to eye with giant predatory dragonflies, and gaze into the impressive jaws of an allosaurus. On view now through October 21, 2012. More info at conservatoryofflowers.org.
