When the war came to Kherson, a small group of scientists ventured into the ruined city to rescue a unique herbarium.
The Kherson herbarium is an irreplaceable collection of more than 32,000 plants, lichen, mosses, and fungi, amassed over a century by generations of scientists, some from thousand-kilometer-long treks across remote areas of Ukraine.

We did a small #botany workshop for a summer camp this week. They practiced some ID, pressed some plants, and helped mount some #herbarium specimens that were still in their 1950s newspaper. #Millennials will be happy to see the kids are still drawing the Cool S. #plants #summer #flowers

Working through some rediscovered herbarium specimens that never came out of their newspaper. This one was in a paper from 1960, with a 1954 label in it. Weird way to discover time travel. #botany #herbarium #plants

#OTD Aylmer Bourke Lambert, British #Botanist, is born.
In 1811, Alymer helped Frederick Pursh after he fled to England w/ specimens from the Lewis & Clark Expedition. The Americans were not happy.
With his #Library & #Herbarium, Aylmer became Pursh's #Botanical #Fairy godfather. But he had to periodically lock Pursh in his attic to keep him working & away from booze.
It took Pursh 2 yrs to complete the #Flora of North America - but he beat American #Botanists to the punch.

#OTD Mary Strong Clemens, #Botanist, is born.
After her #Army #Chaplain hubby (Joseph) retired, they worked together.
Mary collected #Plants & Joe #Dried them for shipping.
In 1936, Joe died in New Guinea.
Six days later, Mary signed off on a #Herbarium sheet for a local tree & then added these #Heartfelt & #Touching #Words:
"It was under this #Tree that my #Soul's #Companion, for over 40 years of #Married life, #Bade me #Farewell for the higher life."

New board from my vintage herbarium. A must in the traditional pharmacopoeia, to know absolutely if you aspire to pass your university degree in witchcraft. Remember to warn children.

Dans l'herbier vintage, je propose aujourd'hui une plante grasse, le Sedum. Résiste à la plupart des intempéries, à la pollution, aux maltraitances diverses et se multiplie vigoureusement. Une vraie plante de gueux.
In the vintage herbarium, I propose today a succulent plant, the Sedum. Withstands most weather, pollution, various abuses and multiplies vigorously. A real beggar plant.

Regarded as the #Father of #Evolutionary #Theory, he paved the way for #Darwin.
He was an early thinker on #ContinentalDrift.
As a #Botanist at the Royal #Botanical #Garden & #Herbarium, he #Ingeniously saved the garden during the #French #Revolution by #Quietly renaming it w/ a #Humble #Sign that simply read The Garden of #Plants.

#OTD Albert Spear #Hitchcock, American #Botanist & #Agrostologist, died.
A #Dedicated #Plant #Explorer, he once wrote about the #Trials of #Exploring:
"The #Mosquitoes were very bad.
I had to [wear] my coat, put #Cheesecloth around my head, & extra #Socks on my hands.
My #Shoes had worn through, & my feet were #Blistered...
But, for all the discomforts, the #Collecting was #Magnificent, & I felt fully repaid."
Albert's #Herbarium & #Library were donated to the #Smithsonian.

Un orchis bouc tiré de mon herbier vintage. je vous rassure, aucune orchidée sauvage n'a été endommagée pour réaliser cette image : spécimen ramassé près d'un relais téléphonique, victime d'une tonte brutale.

A goat orchid from my vintage herbarium. I assure you, no wild orchid was damaged to achieve this image: specimen picked up near a telephone relay, victim of a brutal mowing.
