A herbarium is better than any illustration; every botanist should make one.
If I could remember the names of all these particles, I'd be a botanist.
Don’t worry about being able to identify each of these plants (in your designs for clients). The world is full of botanists and horticulturists. All you have to do is design. You don’t have to be a botanist; you don’t have to be a bulldozer driver; you don’t have to be a fence builder; you don’t have to be an architect. What the designer has to do is look at the relationships.
The botanist should make interest with the bees if he would know when the flowers open and when they close.
