The art of the acquisition, the hunt, the chase....
It is interesting to me the great lengths people would go through in history to aquire an orchid, a fern, roses. A few books I have read "The Orchid Thief", "Wicked Plants", and current literary find, "Chasing The Rose" have opened my eyes to the inside world of botany. It is filled with double crossing, a little backstabbing, redirecting shipments, selfishness.
What factors lead to the decline and waning interest in botany & horticulture?
