I’m thrilled to have 15 of my illustrations in this revision of Polystachya published recently in Kew Bulletin. A revision of Polystachyinae (Orchidaceae) in Madagascar, the Mascarenes, Seychelles and Comoro Islands. Kew Bulletin. Open Access.

It always nice to see an old illustration popping up again after many years. My nothofagus moorei, painted in 2002, has been used again in the most recent edition of Curtis’s Botanical Magazine. Curtis’s Botanical Magazine is the longest running botanical journal in the world, founded in 1787.
