Collection contents: 12 black-and-white, platinum and palladium prints depicting eye-level views of cactus and other plants in the Desert Garden of the Huntington Botanical Gardens in San Marino, California.

In addition, there is one very large panoramic print created by digitally scanning the film to create an archival pigment print measuring 19 x 110.5 inches.
