Sarah's book is such a fascinating history of beautiful and mysterious orchids. Very much looking foward to her event and @harvardpress.bsky.social will be there selling her new book 💐 - ticket link ⬇️
Join us on Tues 18 Nov for an evening of mystery, botany & Victorian intrigue at the Linnean Society. In 1818, a strange orchid arrived in England...and vanished. @sbilston.bsky.social uncovers the tale of Cattleya labiata and the Linnean archives that helped crack the case.
