Tropical Plant Families in London

Tropical Plant Families in London
Dr Daniel Cahen
12th September, 2024
In this talk, Daniel will walk us through the various tropical plant families represented in the London area. Along the way we will be reminded of the many wonderful plants to be found in tropical zones, and perhaps be surprised by some of our native and introduced plants belonging these families.
Daniel is based at Kew Gardens as a botanist specialising in taxonomy with a focus on Rhamnaceae, and the identification and curation of Millennium Seed Bank herbarium voucher specimens.
