Hello, my dear leaflets,

Annie Richards was the first white woman to reside in Fowler Bay and lived through the harsh conditions of that area. She collected flowers for Mueller and Tate. She was instrumental in the collating of some of the amazing plant specimens in the collection housed at the National Australian Herbarium.

Plants synonymous to Annie and Thomas:

Eucalyptus youngiana F.Muell (1876) as 'Richardson',

Erysimum richardsii F.Muell. (1877),

Parmelia hypoxantha Müll.Arg. (1881),

Parmelia conspersa var. polyphylloides Müll.Arg. (1883),

Puccinia wurmbeae Cooke & Massee (1888),

Helipterum troedelii F.Muell. (1890), as 'Mrs Richards',

Helipterum jessenii F.Muell. (1890),

Bassia longicuspis F.Muell. (1891), as 'Mrs Richards', and

Nicotiana goodspeedii H.-M.Wheeler (1935), as 'Richards'.

Hello, my dear leaflets, welcome to episode 35. It's a prelude to the next mini, as we are going to be talking about plant collectors! So what do plant collectors have to do with the way we see plants now? Why is Scrat the squirrel mentioned, and who is Otzi?

Hello, my dear leaflets,

We're talking about planting and harvesting in the colder months. Do you remember what a brassica is? And what's the correct way to pronounce Herb? It may surprise you!

What are you harvesting in your garden atm?
