Plants

(click on letter to show plants starting with that letter)

These are photos of plants mostly taken at botanic gardens. Criteria for inclusion are those plants which are botanically interesting, especially well-cultivated specimens, and those which happened to be in bloom at the time I visited. These are organized by genus, and then alphabetically by species. Even experienced botanists should find something novel here. They are best viewed on a desktop computer with 4K monitor, and you may need to reload the page if the gallery images or captions overlap (apparently due to a bug in the Envira Gallery plugin).
