Special posting for lovers of flowers from Burma.

Watch Chinese botanist Yin Kaipu and American botanist Daniel Hinkley "go crazy" sighting rare species in "The Mother of Gardens" in N.E. China. It's just across the border from Burma in Yunnan and Huangdong mountains, my friends from Burma.

One wonders how many genera are still left in Burma, with mass environmental degredation.

As my former writing mentor James Rahn of Rittenhouse Writers Group used to say on reading my fiction: What will the flowers do next?
