Animal-Friendly Gardens: Plants, Flowers, and Trees Named After Animals

Join me on this fun journey through gardens, fields, and forests as we discover plants, trees, flowers, and fungi named after animals.  Thank you to everyone who supports this listener-supported podcast.  This is a public episode.
