Stories Out of School

This is a series of short essays written by Leo C. Song Jr. on "how we did it' with respect to:

• Dorstenia gigas, a succulent fig from Socotra Island
• Dendrosicyos socotrana, a tree squash extraordinaire
• Welwitschia mirabilis, a plant seemingly from another planet (Tatooine?)
• Boswellia carteri; frankincense, anyone?
