Our monthly members' activity for June was a plant clinic and the first part of a two-part talk by our President, Dr. Liew, about bananas.
As always, there were lots of questions about saving plants from parasites, diseases and various other hazards to good plant health. A few members even brought along their plants or cuttings to show our good doctor what exactly was wrong with their plants. It was a lively and interesting time for all participants as our President proposed various natural ways to cure their plants' ill health.
The clinic was followed by a talk about the origins of our edible bananas. This was an eye-opener for many people since few know that our favourite fruit comes from a large family which includes many non-edible varieties.
The next part of the banana saga is coming soon so keep checking back here or at our Facebook group for updates!
