New Caledonia Botany & Eau-de-Toilette Ultramafic Special

Описание: On the harsh iron-rich, nutrient-poor peridotite and ultramafic substrate of this region of Southern New Caledonia, we take a moment to explore some of the ancient lineages of conifers that have squeezed through the closing garage door of extinction to make it to the present day.

We will sing Tina Turner as obnoxiously as possible and learn how to say "Toilet Water" in French, while at the same time exploring the wonders of ultramafic geology and the evolutionarily-convergent trait of "stunted candelabra growth" (Liberacci never knew) among unrelated plants growing on the shores of this beautiful blue river.
