Kew herbarium curators, researchers, associates, students after an Africa specimen laying away session @KewAfrica
Sir David Attenborough and Dr Sonia Haoa Cardinali visited us last week to make a delivery of precious seeds of the Rapa Nui toromiro tree! 🌱 Extinct in the wild, the ex-situ care for this species here and in botanic gardens worldwide mean it can one day be wild again 🌳💚
We collected 49 botanical families in the @CNRS_Nouragues field station. The 50th stack laid open with specimen? Just Inga. My favourite is I. umbellifera which dries with snowflake patterns.
