Why Is Everything an Orchid? | Nautilus Narrations with Joey Santore

Charles Darwin called orchids an "abominable mystery," fascinated by their odd shape and wild variety. To this day, there are over 28,000 varieties, with more cropping up every year. Understanding how they diversify so easily could help us better protect them from a changing environment.

Watch Joey Santore, botanist, educator, and creator of Crime Pays But Botany Doesn't read "Why Is Everything An Orchid" by Sofia Quaglia and learn more about the plant that baffled Darwin.

Crime Pays But Botany Doesn't teaches plant ecology and evolution with a light-hearted approach. Follow him on Instagram and find videos, merch, and more on his website.
