Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Garden

will start to charge daily admission for the first time in its history on March 29.

The poor economy is a primary reason for the change, said spokeswoman Ann Joslin.

Admission would be $8 adults; $6 seniors age 65 and older; $6 students age 13 to 17 or full-time college students; $4 per child age 3 to 12; free children under free; members free.

The garden moved to Claremont in 1951.

The botanic garden is at 1500 N. College Ave.
