You are surrounded by plants, but how much do you really know about them?  Cristina Salvador and Mollie Parsons from the Santa Fe Botanical Garden will be giving plants a voice, telling the stories of our silent neighbors.  Hear about the surprising and complex world of plants, from how we use plants everyday to where they find their nutrients, from terrifying survival techniques to the people who dedicate their lives to their discovery.  Leave this talk seeing green in a totally new light.
