South African Plant Talk Links

Here's the list of links for each of the 20 plants I mentioned at the Thursday talk at the Huntington. I must confess I  have made a grave error; Euphorbia resinifera is NOT from South Africa, it is from Morocco.

Cheers,   Frank

A very interesting talk, and I loved hearing about some plants I was completely unfamiliar with (like the olive and the Bauhinia)!
