Crime Pays But Botany Doesn't

Southwest Australian Flora cameo by Foot Rot.m4a

Rants about why it's OK to cry, Foot Rot, Plants that smell like hell and the combination of Continental annexation to Antarctica and extremely nutrient-poor, ancient soils that have led to an exquisite species richness in the Australian Flora.    For some nice reading on this subject matter, including a free textbook ON SW Australia plant diversity, check out : <a href="https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=1140CFj-8oTS9PtOcnQIpVx2dg7V9I2_i" rel="noopener">https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=1140CFj-8oTS9PtOcnQIpVx2dg7V9I2_i</a>

Why do some plants grow where they do? How can geology cause new plant species to evolve? Why are some plants pollinated by flies, some by bats, some by birds, and others by bees? How does a plant evolve to look like a rock? How can destroying lawns soothe the soul? This is a show about plants and plant habitat through the lens of natural selection and ecology, with a side of neurotic ranting, light humor, occasional profanity, &amp; the perpetual search for the filthiest taqueria bathroom.
