Ep. 45 - Cycads
Who doesn't love cycads? I know I do and can you really blame me? The cycads are an incredible group of plants. They are also quite ancient. Arising long before flowering plants, this lineage has survived munching dinosaurs, continental drift, and mass extinctions and has undergone incredible adaptive radiations. Today cycads are in trouble. Habitat destruction and poaching now threaten many of the world's species. To get to know cycads a bit better I reached out to one of the world experts on this group of plants, Dr. Dennis Stevenson of the New York Botanical Garden. Dr. Stevenson has traveled the globe to study and describe new species of cycad. He has been on every major continent and has encountered nearly every species in the wild. His work has helped us better understand this enigmatic and ancient group. Join us for a fascinating discussion about the cycads.
