We are headed into the last few days of the election for your next student representative elect! PLEASE take the time to cast your vote if you haven’t done so already. We have a range of amazing applicants this year and your votes will decide who will be serving as your liaison with the society for the next two years.

Some more pretty flower news to get you through the day! This is a photo from the website for the Hitachi Seaside Gardens in Japan. On their site they tell us “Known as Rurikarakusa in Japanese, nemophila is an annual herb native to North America. The plant grows up to 20cm tall and produces flowers between 2 – 3cm in size. The small flowers mean nemophila usually plays a supporting role in gardens but at Hitachi Seaside Park the sheer number of flowers creates an almost neverending sea of blue that flows seamlessly into the blue Spring skies.” You can check them out at @hitachikaihin and maybe pay a visit someday! #flowers #botany #japan #nemophila #boraginaceae #economicbotany #ethnobotany #ethnobiology #plants #garden #gardening #babyblueeyes

At the expense of sounding like a broken record, here is your reminder that voting for your next student rep elect is OPEN but will only be until the end of the month (less than two weeks). PLEASE take the few minutes to read about the amazing candidates we have and cast your vote. The individual you vote in will be integral to the student council for the next two years, so it’s important to get your voice heard!

Voting is now OPEN for your next student rep elect. This individual will take on the junior student rep position next year and advance to the senior position the following year. Please take the time to go cast your vote! The link to the ballot is in the latest society email. If you have any trouble getting to it then please let one of your student council members know. Voting closes May 31!

Anyone who says research is no fun has clearly not been doing the right kind of research! Especially in these trying global times, we need to enjoy the little things. “Toxic” by Britney Spears coming on while getting samples of poisonous plants ready for analysis? Priceless! As lockdowns begin to loosen around the world and you all are able to begin your research again, don’t forget that we want to hear from YOU so that we can share news about student accomplishments and projects with the rest of the student population and the society as a whole! Send information about your projects to either Aja or Karsten or get in touch through any of the society student social media platforms! Let’s spread the word about the new generation of work in economic botany! #economicbotany #ethnobotany #botany #toxicplants #poisonplants #ethnobiology #research #usefulplants #studentresearch
