"Once again it's time for the Garden of D'Lights at Walnut Creek's Ruth Bancroft Garden, a 3.5 acre parcel that - so it happens - last year ranked the most beautiful garden in the world on Tripadvisor. Running on select nights until Jan. 11, the annual show offers the chance to see desert-adapted plants turned into spiny silhouettes by the force of visible-from-space holiday lights."
""See the garden and plant collection transform into a dazzling, water-wise wonderland illuminated with thousands of colorful lights, sculptures and lasers," write the Bancroft staff. "The nursery will be open for evening shopping, with hot cocoa and spiced wine available to enjoy as you wander through the lights." The evening show features three entry times, available rain or shine: 5:30 p.m., 6:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m."
