• Resumen

  • An understanding of the science of plants is of importance in enabling humanity to meet the ever-increasing demands on our global resources. Yet many students exhibit "plant blindness" and an apathy towards learning about the science therein. Some examples of resources to overcome this and reposition plant material in the school science lesson are suggested and the usefulness of plant material in practical science is considered.
