We will head north from Cincinnati to the Columbus area on the Pre-Conference Tour Friday, September 25th. You will have a choice, after seeing several production demonstrations at Decker's Nursery, to continue on to other nurseries or to go to sites with an educational/botanical flavor. It will be a tough decision! Click HERE for more. . .
Giant Seed Gliders
You just have to see this remarkable footage of falling Alsomitra vine seeds, which use paper-thin wings to disperse like giant gliders. At nearly 6 inches across, they are among the largest winged seeds produced by any plant yet the seed's wings are less than .012 inches thick. It is absolutely captivating! Click HERE.
