Winter comes alive at the Atlanta Botanical Garden in Georgia for two months every year with a dazzling holiday light display, "Garden Lights, Holiday Nights," which began in 2011 and has become a tradition for local families and many tourists. Behind the shimmering lights, the garden staff has decades of experience in plant conservation and species recovery through the Southeastern Center for Conservation. The center works locally and globally to help efforts to preserve and proliferate a variety of plant species.
