Today we celebrate a botanist remembered for his work with Pears and Camellias.
We'll also learn about a botanist who specialized in grasses and traveled extensively to collect them.
We'll learn about the work of a forensic botanist back in the early 1980s.
We take a moment to savor December - courtesy of a verse from the American naturalist and writer Hal Borland.
We Grow That Garden Library™ with a book that came out this summer, and it brings the goodness of the Catskills right to your table.
And then we'll wrap things up with a cute little story about a plant name you won't soon forget…
