Joseph Hooker was one of the most prominent botanists of Darwin's day. His exploits and travels are the stuff of adventures. So hang on to your pocket books and credit cards because this new book about Hooker is going to be hard to resist, and since it is actually quite reasonable in price, why not indulge a bit in some botanical history. Hooker probably named more plants than anyone since Linnaeus. So here's the link if you're interested. And dang the Phactor loves that hat, rakish angle and all. Yes, botanists are dashing sorts, especially in the field. And do you recognize the plant that is being illustrated? If so, what sex is it and where was it growing (country)?
