THE LEGACY OF LUTHER BURBANK, A GALLERY SHOW — Reception: Thursday, September 11, 2025 6 to 7:30 pm at Sebastopol Center for the Arts, 282 High St., Sebastopol, CA.
Fourteen Sonoma County botanical artists will exhibit paintings of plants from the Luther Burbank Experiment Garden in Sebastopol and the Luther Burbank Home & Garden in Santa Rosa. His signature plants were aimed towards food production, both for humans and animals, fruit trees for people, and even cactus for cows. He also experimented with flowers and is responsible for inventing the Shasta daisy.
Colored pencil on a variety of papers and films was used in presenting botanically accurate depictions of selected plants, fruits, flowers and trees created through Burbank’s experiments. The artists worked directly with specimens from both locations and have created a “Florilegium” of Burbank’s work in Sonoma County.
