REGISTER NOW* DON'T FORGET TO REGISTER!   Long-time IPS member and PALMS co-editor, Dr. Scott Zona, will speak on the five functions that every palm (and other plants) must do, whether in the wild or in cultivation. The lecture is based on his new book, A Gardener’s Guide to Botany: The Biology Behind the Plants You Love, How They Grow, and What They Need (Cool Springs Press, 2023).   Join us on Saturday, August 26, 2023, at 2 PM ET, to learn about how palms grow (from repeating units, like LEGO® bricks), how they acquire nutrients, how they deploy many-layered defenses, how they have sex without touching, and how their seeds are dispersed. This is a fascinating look at how plants grow—not how to grow plants—and a crash course in botany from one of our own!   This webinar is exclusive to paid IPS members. If you are not an active paid member, upgrade or join today!   JOIN IPS* *You must join IPS or login using your IPS member account to view the webinar page and register.

I just heard from our IPS president that more than one member has had difficulty registering for today’s webinar.

For those who were not able to attend, Scott’s very interesting webinar will eventually make its way to the IPS website for members to view it anytime.

Thanks for posting this.  I got to watch the first 45 minutes and wanted to go back and catch what I missed.
