Plants Are Cool, Too! It’s something we never forget at NYBG, we get it and totally agree; plants are cool. They feed us, they clothe us, they keep us warm and sheltered, they inspire art, music, and religion. But plants also have a bit of a PR problem. Plants aren’t (necessarily) cuddly, they don’t have big eyes that can penetrate your soul, and they’re (rarely) fuzzy. Dr. Chris Martine of Bucknell University is out to set the record straight with his really excellent “Plants Are Cool, Too!” video series. This latest installment looks at a fossilized forest in Clarkia, Idaho that had me gasping in wonder. Seriously, plants are totally cool!~AR
