Botanica: Unofficial challenge

Botany – the science of the vegetable kingdom is one of the most attractive, most useful, and extensive departments of human

knowledge. It is above every other, the science of beauty.

— Sir Joseph Paxton.

The flora of a world is very important for its existence, but I think they are still an undervalued asset in worldbuilding. So, let's make some plants for this month!

What

You can do this unofficial challenge in 3 ways. Yes! THREE! All three ways are equally valid.
(You only need to write one (1) article)

1. Write a tradition article about a celebration. This celebration should be related to a plant in some way. The article can also be the traditional way that a plant is consumed. You should have already written the plant species article you write about in the tradition article if you choose to go with this template. ...Oh, but I won't stop you from writing about a plant as well, just remember to pace yourself. Summer Camp is starting soon.


2. Choose a species article and write about the plant. This is pretty straightforward.


3. Create a document article and write about a book or any other document that talks about plants, and one plant in specific.

My botanical documents should contribute to restoring the link with nature. They should reawaken a sense of nature, point to its teeming richness of form, and prompt the viewer to observe for himself the surrounding plant world.

— Karl Blossfeldt

Nature’s economy shall be the base for our own, for it is immutable, but ours is secondary. An economist without knowledge of nature is therefore like a physicist without knowledge of mathematics.

Botany: We can live without every other science but we cannot live without plants. They are our food, our lungs, our strengths, our relaxation, our pleasure, our future and our hope. Our moment of wisdom is when we are able to recognize this fact.

— Andi Mellis
