  • Such an informative Podcast

    This podcast is eye opening. I never realized that plant poaching where people have lost their lives over. Definitely worth a listen even if it turns out to be a single season.

  • Mesmerizing and Compelling

    I am binging this podcast. So sad to see the last episode was recorded almost a year ago. I hope this podcast hasn’t gone the way of many of its flora subjects. Thank you SRO for bringing this important subject to light.
