With the Australasian Systematic Botany Society (ASBS) conference coming to a close, I wanted to share with you the magnificent plant tattoos of plants real and not so real that are residing under the skin of some attendants. See all in the thread. Can you name the plants portrayed?

Fantastic fun hunting for salt living samphires with @AnzeCalasan… including rare and potentially new species. Can’t wait to see this work come to fruition… (we’ve been collecting seeds!).
