Explore the fascinating world of scientific plant names with botanist Chris Benda.
“The beginning of wisdom is to call things by their rightful names,” a saying often attributed to Confucius, reminds us of the power of precise language. Botanists use scientific names to identify and communicate about plants, but these names can be tricky to spell and pronounce. In this fun and informative presentation, botanist Chris Benda will explain why botanical names matter, show you how to pronounce them correctly, and reveal the meanings behind the names.
