90 minutes of Aroids with Tom Croat

Tom Croat takes us deep into the world of aroids, from beetle-trapping blooms and scent-guided pollination to the astonishing variety of habitats these plants inhabit. He shares stories from decades of collecting across the tropics, where new species still await discovery and forests are rapidly disappearing. Along the way, the conversation wanders through plant evolution, soil, agriculture, and the challenges of protecting wild landscapes.
