Kew magazine

Link to index for Kew Magazine - Winter 2008

Plants are not only beautiful and intriguing, they are the basis of all life on Earth. At Kew we work to increase understanding of the plant kingdom and so promote more sustainable management of the Earth's environment.

Kew, the quarterly magazine of the Royal Botanic Gardens, aims to entertain as well as inform, blending beautiful colour photography with articles on a unique and eclectic range of subjects. This fascinating mix includes features that go behind the scenes to explain the immense range of Kew’s work at home and abroad. From horticulture, education, conservation and the environment to art, history and cookery, all features focus on plants and the people who work with them. Among the stories that Kew tells are those about plant-hunting expeditions to remote corners of the world, plant conservation work in many countries, profiles of Kew’s experts, discoveries of new species, and the ways in which people can use the world's plants to improve their lives. The latest news from Kew and the world of plant science, and a diary of events for members of Friends and events for the public completes the magazine.
