a slide introducing GA, when the researchers found the GA mutant, they called them "foolish seedling". Then on the right corner I inserted Kagura from Gintama saying "お前ら 馬鹿ですか”
Successfully inserted anime in my plant bio lecture! 💅 Throwback to the good old time that I transcribed subtitles for many anime for two years at the end of my undergrad, now I'm telling a room of undergrads the plants and anime that I love. I love my job! #ib103 #anime #plantjoy

How the plant looked like
Ran into these AMAZING Stapelia grandiflora in our conservatory today. The patterns, colors, hairs, and the smell - carrion mimic to perfection. #Stapelia #plantjoy #iamabotanist

Look at that! 🤩 It reminds me of Lantana camara, one of many plants that change color upon pollination: bc it’s easier for bees to see yellows than reds, yellow are young unpollinated flowers, red ones are older and pollination triggered production of more anthocyanin. #plantjoy #iamabotanist 🧪🌿🌸

Whenever I see cactus blooms, I tickle them. 💅🏻🌸
Thigmonastic stamens - rapid, touch induced movement for pollination.

Close up of two magenta colored flowers with feathered crest
Close up of another two flowers with feathered crests
A young flower before fully open but the crest is already sticking out very feather like
This elaborated feathery structure (crest) of Polygala myrtifolia is a pollinator attractant, but also a landing platform & a lever. Only strong bees 🐝🏋️ can press it down enough to enter the flower for nectar, during which the pollens also get attached onto the bee’s head. #iamabotanist #plantjoy

Photo of planter in the shape of Groot. His "arms" are raised towards the sky. There is a little succulent coming out of his "head." He is sitting on ledge of a small fountain surrounded by ferns. Groot has a smile on his face.
