Issue 150 just published:
As the editor, Ray Stephenson, says of the 150th issue "..it seems so improbable that an amateur journal restricted to a single family of plants could possibly sill be finding new material to publish - but here we are!"
At four issues per year that makes......years!!
Anyway this issue includes:
- using all senses to identify plants
- William Aiton - Scottish botanist
- Searching for Aeonium aizoon on Tenerife
- Review of Britton & Rose's classification of Crassulaeae in the 1905 Flora of North America
- Melinda Fay Denton - American botanist
- Discussion of Eric Walther's approach to Echevaria nomenclature
- Sedums along the Zhuilu Old Road Trail, Taiwan
- Sedum sedoides - the largest flowers in the genus?
plus book reviews, Society notices and smaller articles
