Congratulations Laura!!! @laura_brans
Happy to celebrate our last few years together at the MBA - to share an office with such an academic gem and a kind soul @laura_brans was a dream! Proud to see all your achievements thus far and I know there will be many more to come!!
Astounding! What a plant!
This is the largest titan arum we found in West Sumatra. Remind you that although it looks like a small tree, the thick trunk and those lush leaflets are one single leaf. I can only imagine how big the corm is underground.

Gammon not fond of gays shocker
Kew Gardens has launched an event celebrating “queer nature”, and Piers Morgan is – predictably – less than pleased about it. “Why can’t we just have straight plants?” 🧵(1/6)
