Final post in our introduction to The Plant Practice series: Sara Angelucci goes into the night to record the flowers and insects of her home territory in Canada
A new series edited by Mark Watson that explores our essential and imaginative relationships with plants, as habitats everywhere lie under siege, From feral gardening to sleeping with trees, the lexicon of dandelions to the medicine of sumac, all radical botanical encounters can be found here.
‘The ‘plant people’ in this series – writers, artists, scientists, feral gardeners, lichenologists and more – all have their own approaches to plant-human communication that go beyond the straight and narrow worlds of utility, commerce and control. And so we enter the rich (though not always easy) realms of reciprocity and relationship with the green living beings we depend on for our existence.
