Sedge, seedlings, santolina and stems
It seems only fitting that flora follows fauna (last month's theme), so this
month's CJS Photography Competition has the suggested theme of Plants and
Botany
This month (November)
the prize is Botanical Society of Britain and Ireland (BSBI) membership.
The BSBI is for everyone who is interested
in the wild and naturalised plants of Britain and Ireland. We trace our origins
back to 1836, when the society was founded as the Botanical Society of London.
We are now one of the world's largest contributors of biological records: our
data inform scientific research and underpin evidence-based conservation.
We have always welcomed both professional and amateur
members, and remain the biggest and most active organisation devoted to the
study of botany in Britain, Ireland, the Channel Isles and the Isle of Man. Our
training, outreach and research programmes continue to support botanists at all
skill levels, and our grants programmes helps us support the next generation of
botanists.
The BSBI produces national
Atlases and county Floras of the distribution of plants. We publish British and Irish Botany and
hold conferences,
workshops, indoor and field meetings.
As a BSBI member, you are kept informed by a newsletter three times a year; your
benefits include discounts on a range of botanical books; and you are given
exclusive access to our network of 100+ national expert referees who can help
with the identification of
difficult plants.
