@Rainmaker1973 Nature’s tiny lungs at work! 🌿 Watch a single stoma on a Tradescantia spathacea (boat lily) leaf open and close like it’s checking the weather. Who knew plants were such diligent breathers? 😄🍃 [📹 Douglas Clark] #PlantTok #BotanyIsCool #NatureCloseUp

Plants, plants and more (pressed) plants! The National Herbarium of Canada holds thousands of preserved and flattened plants in these temperature controlled cabinets. Can you guess how many? @ #botanyiscool #scicomm @flatplants

Outrageously cool class/hike on Colorado Plateau invasive plants led by local plant experts from the Park Service and Grand County - I learned SO much and am always in awe of people who can name every plant I point to! Amazing. #BotanyIsCool #MoabSciFest2020

I’m obsessing over this orange begonia I got for a gift. I want my entire lawn lit up in Tiger orange like this. Did everyone cover their precious babies last night? I’m hoping my garden survived 😬 . #plantmom #botanyiscool 🌱 🌺 🌳

"Botany may be dying … but somehow the plants survive": https://t.co/u76BWo15PS @ConversationUK #plantsci "Beyond the taxonomy debate, there is a wider concern for the teaching of whole plant biology... Who knows, maybe botany will one day become cool after all."

I❤️how beech trees hang on to their leaves throughout winter. Of course, wouldn’t you know there’s a name for it. Botanists call it marcescence. Retention of dead material. Cool. I just learned a new science word. #sciencerocks #botanyiscool #learnsomethingneweveryday

A perfect example why scientific species names matter: Left - #Cuckooflower in Britain = #Cardemine pratensis #Brassicaceae; Right - #Koekoeksbloem ('Cuckooflower') in Holland = #Silene sp. #Carryophyllaceae #wildflowerhour #localflora #botanyiscool

Started with #DNA extractions from #aloe Quite a process even collecting the plant material. The 'gel' is mostly water and low on DNA so needs to be removed. Sticky business! Green bits are dried in silica to minimise DNA degradation. #succulents #science #botanyiscool
