We appreciate your posts and the following ones are randomly selected because of their botanical qualities. They are manually curated on behalf of the Amazing Nature Community.

First a brief explanation about Botany:

Botany is a broad term covering scientific study of plants. It could be from a small living organism to a tree. Included would be flora, fungi, lichens, trees and flowering plants.

We are also interested in plants for their psychological (good for the mind & soul) benefits.

Through botany, medicinal properties are discovered from nature. Food, medicines, parks, forests, pollution and much more have been improved with botanical knowledge. Botanists search for alternatives from the harmful chemicals used on crops and the deforestation that has damaged the health of our planet.

Herbalism, with ancient people identifying edible, medicinal or poisonous plants, is the original of Botany. Our ancestors and Native peoples were botanists in their own right. They knew of the healing properties to be found in plants but much of that knowledge had been lost to future generations.


Now I would like to bring your attention to the curated posts and ask you to show some love to the amazing authors:


  • Ever wonder how natural rubber is obtained? @zanoz takes us on a trip to a rubber plantation where the sap (latex) is extracted from the trees.

  • @careassaktart recently moved to Malinska, Island Krk, Croatia. He writes about a pilgrimage to see two beautiful old oak trees he has heard about and how, through the ages, the magnificent oak has been held sacred by many cultures.

  • @travelingmercies hurries most of the time but she will always stop for a few minutes to check out nature’s bounty of wonderful flowers. There’s no hurry waiting for beautiful plants to bloom.
