I've shot Chihuiy at the New York Botanical Gardens in the evening on two occasions using a Nikon D7200 and a 50mm f2.8 prime and my 18-140 kit lens with outstanding results. I personally don't think you need a CPL - most of the glass is let internally so there is very little, if any, glare. Tri or mono pod is extremely helpful if allowed.
I shot Chihuly at the Dallas Arboretum several years ago. Probably nothing like most of you but I had a blast.
