Great news for those who mourn the passing of botany courses. Henslow’s groundbreaking five-week course from 1827 was the inspiration for Charles Darwin to be able to take Henslow’s place on the voyage of The Beagle. Cambridge are to offer a 4-week course using archive material.

Lianas are beautiful too! Transverse sections reveal the patterning of xylem tubes, reflecting how so much stem space is devoted to transporting water skyward.

This is how we collect #plants to document #biodiversity around the #cenotes in #Yucatan #Mexico. Long sleeves, trousers & bandana protect you against insects and the scorching sun, but won't help you to cool down when it's 43°C! @KewScience @KewAmericas #accelerated #taxonomy
