I like the way the lecture has been presented. you're not just a lecturer but a real teacher by profession, i really like it and am helped a lot. THANK YOU!
These are all the answers to questions I have on a daily basis! I find myself constantly comparing flowers and flower parts and then being frustrated at not being able to talk about them because I don’t have the vocabulary or even the basic knowledge needed. Now I’m going to be armed and dangerous-armed with enough vocabulary to be dangerously dull at a cocktail party. But the enthusiasm of this great professor has shown me how to overcome that as well! Thanks!
Recently discovered I have an interest in botany and wanted a simple video to start off with, and you really did great with this video as an introductory! Thank you sm
My college doesn’t offer botany but I think I want to major in it, so studying as much as possible before I decide and transfer. I’ve always loved plant sciences, though if this doesn’t work out marine biology would be my second choice. I could always double/triple major or minor too. Thanks for the video lovely! Your enthusiasm is contagious!!!
Watching this video I want to know how intelligent species of teachers evolved so fast and all of a sudden. Very interesting and enjoyable way of explaining..I enjoyed each and every second and rewinded back many times to thoroughly have a deep understanding...
What an excellent orator! I love botany so much and there isn't as much material on it as there is for zoology. I hope she's getting paid well! She deserves it.
Some terms I remember hearing at school as a kid growing up and some new terms I never heard before! Great to have a refresher course! Plants are some of the things that make the world awesome and d drown out or overshadow all that's ugly or wrong with the world !
This stuff just goes in one ear and my brain just can’t keep most of it in. But I enjoyed the overall knowledge. Learning science brings me so close to the great spirit. Just makes me know that the great spirit isn’t a magician but one of great order.
What a wonderful and enthusiastic woman! thank you for this video and sharing this fascinating information. I am taking a Botany course and this complements well with what we are studying. Love to learn with a smart and passionate professor :)
This was a great presentation and I loved her passion in sharing her knowledge. I did find her dramatic and constant hand movements distracting and kept rewinding to absorb all the information presented. What a great teacher! Thanks...
I watched through this series, and I learned a lot. I also really enjoyed the presenter lady - she's so enthusiastic and geeky that I'd still laugh like an idiot at all her lamest jokes.
Thank you so much... By having such interest and researching experience organized to share with people who also have similar wonders. Very impressive. Thank you so much.
What a wonderful introduction to botany. I really enjoyed your relaxed and informative presentation, and will be sure to subscribe. Thank you :-) Where can I access more of your presentations?

This is the answer to our current problem...we need more oxygen producing plants and others to use the water and bring water levels down.....cutting oil usage by 90 % ..will also help...50%if we garden the earth
She like my biological anthropology professors.... Anthropology professors REALLY love what they teach and research if you've never taken a course, they are the best entertainment especially for subjects like forensic osteopathology.
I've tried to get botany as a class at my high school but there is just not enough students for the class to be one for that year. I've tried for my sophomore and junior year :( my last chance will be my senior year. It's the one course I really want. Like i litterally have no idea what career i want and i feel as if botany is my subject.
Always been interested in botany but I'm dumb and not good at science. Doing psychology instead in my senior year of uni and taking a break. Wish I would've tried something else
at around 4min, she seems surprised that in 40 million years we had an explosion of flowering plants. But what if that explosion of new plant life happened because the pollinating insects had finally found a great source of nutrients and the plant found a new and sure way of pollinating in the presence of those insects. What if flowering is a pretty common mutation in plants (seems that it is with all of the varieties) and once the insects were pollinating, the flower mutations expanded rapidly? Can anyone prove or disprove that as I have zero experience with this topic and it is literally just a thought that popped into my head? :)
Hey there. Check out "The history of associations between plants and animals" by Conrad Labandeira. It's chapter 2 of a book called plant-animal interactions: an evolutionary approach edited by Herrera and Pellmyr. You can find the chapter online. :) enjoy and go from there
This is a great video. It's helped me understand things so much better. (I have to say though sitting down like on a talk show and not changing camera angles so much would make it easier to watch).
Lol Really well done. Enjoyed when you finally got to the point. Had to choke a bit on that 'intro/timeframe'.... Kept thinking: Separates Darwin and evolution, adds conjecture, sprinkles the term 'evolution' here and there, and dumps in argumentative comments about time frames and fossil records. This began as a major eye roll... Get to solid science please. And then, after skipping ahead, you got there, and it was nice.
For some reason I got recommended a lot of plant-related videos. Honestly speaking I'm not interested but got bombarded with tons of info about plants anyway(which I don't really have to know since I work at a Japanese-American cultural exchange program). As someone who has interest in Japan I do love Sakura(Japanese word for cherry blossoms) though, and all I hope is that she is a girl like the character in Naruto.
Small correction - Titan arum has the largest UNBRANCHED inflorescence. The largest inflorescence is on a palm tree called Corypha umbraculifera. Other than that it was a pretty decent and informative video.
My thesis is: Over 90% of flowering plants are annual. Most of these plants do not survive below 30 degrees(-1c) therefore these plants never had a chance to fossilize through the ages?
I'm curious about what you are teaching. i can't understand such a fast English clearfully but I'm watching it slow mode. I'm a Indian and thanks for this lecture .Are more lectures available ?
I have just recently taken gardening up as a hobby, it’s so therapeutic.. I realized I needed to gain more knowledge and be responsible because I am buying more and more plants and one I had planted was a moonflower, I did not know this flower was poisonous ☠️ I didn’t know it would attract bats even though it makes sense, but I came to YT to find out everything I could about plants and I just wanted to say I really like your teaching style!
I studies Botany for 3 yrs. This video would have been about half of my course. I love the succinct informative delivery and I love flowers
@ابو ليث الخطيب
Who cares? The Quran isn't science.
If I want knowledge on growing plants and breeding plants is this the course I should take?
Id love ideas on a more very serious course like anton petrov and his science channel any tips would be badarse please and thanks!
Oh cool, wanted to do botany but school blasts me with unnecessary classes
Passion in a teacher is attention in the learner ,even dull one like myself!Thanks.
#investing
Absolutely love this professor. Wish I'd had her for Botany years ago.
I found her enthusiasm infectious I also wish I had her for botany
I also would have liked she were my botany teacher 👩🏫
I like the way the lecture has been presented. you're not just a lecturer but a real teacher by profession, i really like it and am helped a lot. THANK YOU!

Oh man I get more boring at parties everyday,
I love how unnecessarily energetic this woman is. XD
She just really loves what she does, it's so nice to see 😊
Shes just excited about plants!!!
I love her so much
Yeah, she really sparks my interest for botany way more xD
Thank you. I thought I was the only one.
This is really interesting! I’ve always wanted to study Botany, and this is great!
M studying botany✌

This video was a godsend for my botany course that has a crappy professor. Thank you!!
Recently discovered I have an interest in botany and wanted a simple video to start off with, and you really did great with this video as an introductory! Thank you sm
Ok so, I wanna be a botanist because of a video I clicked on at 2:00 am
Hahahahaha... Awesome! Same here..
12:21am and thinking the same thing 😂
Check out Crime Pays but Botany Doesnt. His channel is wonderful
Weird Birb Hybrid lol!!! Literally!
Lol come join us. I'm a biodiversity specialist. Botany is wonderful :D

Me too 🙂
I also love plants so.much🌳🌲🌴🌵🌿🌾
World is slowly dying, and we're going to save it!
We use these lessons for my daughter and she said she really enjoyed the video.
Me too!

Your enthusiasm is contagious!!!
I got a job in cultivation and to understand the ladies more here I am. Thank you for helping me continue my education in something I enjoy
Thank you for learning with us
Ok mam
Watching this video I want to know how intelligent species of teachers evolved so fast and all of a sudden.
Very interesting and enjoyable way of explaining..I enjoyed each and every second and rewinded back many times to thoroughly have a deep understanding...
What an excellent orator! I love botany so much and there isn't as much material on it as there is for zoology. I hope she's getting paid well! She deserves it.
Far out, I can listen to her speak about botany all day. Awesome video.
Thanks for listening, Akira!
Really brought school to me. Lol reminds me of that feeling when you are listening to your teacher nerd out. Enjoyed it.
5 years later & this is a great introductory lecture to botany, thank you!
I am a student taking Botany subject, watching this make the subject more interesting 🙂☺️. Thank for this video..
I love flowers, trees and all plants. Therefore, I love this teacher.
This lady is very good at this Botany thing!
Some terms I remember hearing at school as a kid growing up and some new terms I never heard before! Great to have a refresher course! Plants are some of the things that make the world awesome and d drown out or overshadow all that's ugly or wrong with the world !
This stuff just goes in one ear and my brain just can’t keep most of it in. But I enjoyed the overall knowledge. Learning science brings me so close to the great spirit. Just makes me know that the great spirit isn’t a magician but one of great order.
Are you a magician?
What a wonderful and enthusiastic woman! thank you for this video and sharing this fascinating information. I am taking a Botany course and this complements well with what we are studying. Love to learn with a smart and passionate professor :)
Glad it was helpful!
This was a great presentation and I loved her passion in sharing her knowledge. I did find her dramatic and constant hand movements distracting and kept rewinding to absorb all the information presented. What a great teacher! Thanks...
she is a very good speaker, she must be good in a debate
I'm a Biology major and the teacher is so enthusiastic I love it :>
She is a superb lecturer.
you showed a pea (fabaceae) for the asters and another orchid (Dendrobium) for the fabaceae
i am not exaggerating too much but IT WAS ONE OF THE MOST HELPFUL VIDEOS TO ME. thank you The Great Courses Selects.
I watched through this series, and I learned a lot. I also really enjoyed the presenter lady - she's so enthusiastic and geeky that I'd still laugh like an idiot at all her lamest jokes.
Thanks for the review! We are happy to hear this.
Thank you so much... By having such interest and researching experience organized to share with people who also have similar wonders. Very impressive. Thank you so much.
Thank you for blessing me with attention.
Very nice informative video but I noticed that at 10:36 there’s a picture of a Fabaceae species on “Asters” and a Dendrobium nobile on “Fabaceae”
She’s a great science communicator! This was really helpful 😊
Thank you Joshy for the positive feedback.

beautifully
Thank you for making this video. I very much enjoy learning the history involved to get modern botany. Have a great day!
Thanks for the feedback, Matthew. Never stop learning!📚
This is the answer to our current problem...we need more oxygen producing plants and others to use the water and bring water levels down.....cutting oil usage by 90 % ..will also help...50%if we garden the earth
All my botany teachers have always been amazing!
I love you woman! , your way of teaching is impeccable and ohh how eloquent you are with your choice of words . Thank you , appreciate ya !
Great mnemotic!
King Phillip Came Over From Good Spain; Kingdom, Phyllum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species.
Thanks!
Haven't heard this version before now! I learned "Keep Ponds Clean Or Fish Get Sick" and added "(Sad!)" for sub-species at the end, myself.
There's also King Phillip Came Over For Good Soup!
"Kings play chess on fine grained sand"
Thank you so much for this video!! amazing teacher, kept my attention all the way through!
Thank you for this video. I'm only 13 but my dream is to become a botanist. Any tips are appreciated

Fascinating lecture.
I've tried to learn about flowers and luckily I found this video, it was great 👏👏👏
Hands down one of the best presters i've seen! Congrats😀
Wow tysm! I wanna become a naturalist I love learning about botany! It's great! 🌿🌱🌲
Excellent presenter
You pronounce the 'ae' at the end of the name correctly. This is a very good thing.
She's PhD. better pay attention please!
It really helpful I have botany and zoology exam tomorow 🙏🙏👍
She like my biological anthropology professors.... Anthropology professors REALLY love what they teach and research if you've never taken a course, they are the best entertainment especially for subjects like forensic osteopathology.
This plantdemic had me consider being a botanist
I've tried to get botany as a class at my high school but there is just not enough students for the class to be one for that year. I've tried for my sophomore and junior year :( my last chance will be my senior year. It's the one course I really want. Like i litterally have no idea what career i want and i feel as if botany is my subject.
this lady rules
Always been interested in botany but I'm dumb and not good at science. Doing psychology instead in my senior year of uni and taking a break. Wish I would've tried something else
Mint Princess You're not dumb. Just not good at science.
I learned a lot from this videos mam...
I love plants.
informative video
i literally soaked up that info
I see what you did there
great lecture thank you
Well Done! That was a lot of work. Well organized and presented.
Thank you for the feedback, SuzCa, it is much appreciated!
Love your intense energy.
Thank you🙂
This video is very interesting and sweet ma'am. Thanks
Learnt a lot! Excellent lecture
Glad it was helpful, Ana! Never stop learning!

Idk where she got her energy from but I love it!
This woman is awesome!
Minute 3:07, what is shown is not Archaefructus. 3:25 is Archaefructus.
Lol
Really well done.
Enjoyed when you finally got to the point.
Had to choke a bit on that 'intro/timeframe'....
Kept thinking:
Separates Darwin and evolution, adds conjecture, sprinkles the term 'evolution' here and there, and dumps in argumentative comments about time frames and fossil records.
This began as a major eye roll...
Get to solid science please.
And then, after skipping ahead, you got there, and it was nice.
A very nice presentation.
Very informative
Excellent explanation 😊
Its really informative
For some reason I got recommended a lot of plant-related videos. Honestly speaking I'm not interested but got bombarded with tons of info about plants anyway(which I don't really have to know since I work at a Japanese-American cultural exchange program). As someone who has interest in Japan I do love Sakura(Japanese word for cherry blossoms) though, and all I hope is that she is a girl like the character in Naruto.
Thank you Sooooo much for such a nice video ma'am.... It was informative and very interesting...👍👍👍
Outstanding video, very enthusiastic and well explained.
We are happy you liked it, Paul! Never stop learning.
Amazing video
idk why I'm watching this but i feel i wanna master biology while I'm studying at dep of English
Small correction - Titan arum has the largest UNBRANCHED inflorescence. The largest inflorescence is on a palm tree called Corypha umbraculifera. Other than that it was a pretty decent and informative video.
Thank you for this class watched the whole video very informative
0:48 flower power
I love plants......
I think people who are excited to learn are pretty damn cool
I loved this his course!
We appreciate your feedback, Christopher! Never stop learning :)
A ton of information in such a clever way....thanks a lot!.
My thesis is: Over 90% of flowering plants are annual. Most of these plants do not survive below 30 degrees(-1c) therefore these plants never had a chance to fossilize through the ages?
@Tarzan what a pity! 😂😂
Love this woman! Could listen to her all day. Made botany exciting! I follow her now on Instagram😆 (botany stalker)
Love the enthusiasm 🥰
Thank u
This is very helpful to me. Thank you.
I did plant surgery and made a male dominate plant into a female borg on one male
I'm curious about what you are teaching. i can't understand such a fast English clearfully but I'm watching it slow mode. I'm a Indian and thanks for this lecture .Are more lectures available ?
just amazing
Already luv her, more more
