You know, Darwin never realized the full hit of what he was experimenting with. I once read that in one letter he wrote he wondered if he should even bother to report his findings to the Linnaean Society, he did not find them particularly important, more whimsical than weighty!

 

[Spectabilis73]

wow! I wonder what I would be doing now if he didn't?

 

[Tamlin Dawnstar]

Do I get to ask questions too?

Leaf cuttings are not used to reproduce this species. Darn.
