I enjoy giving talks in the UK and abroad, on topics that range from science, to horticulture, ecology or travel. Here are a few examples of talks I have given:

• Plant hunting in the 21st century
• Using DNA to identify plants
• Insects in gardens: friends or foes?
• The fascinating world of pollens
• Plant names keep changing – should taxonomists be left to disappear?
• Conserving plants in gardens: Plant Heritage and the National Plant Collections
• Plant conservation around the world
• The wonders of plants from Malaysia/Northern Vietnam/Madeira and their uses in gardens
• Plant Collections: Bringing Another Dimension to the Landscape
• Plant records : an underestimated resource

My audiences have ranged from gardening clubs, professional landscapers, to MSc students or government staff.
My talks can be presented in English or French.
If you would like to hear me talk please feel free to drop me an email.
