If you need a visual pick-me-up to get through the last session of #Botany2025, come listen to me talk about using a conservation dog to find #truffle #biodiversity in the Mycology section at 2PM (Sierra room). I promise golden retriever pics!

Another great moment for us at #Botany2025! When we learned our plenary speaker would be unable to speak as planned, Dr. Catrina Adams stepped up and gave the plenary in her place. She did an AMAZING job of highlighting PlantingScience's 20 years of supporting plant education!
