    Are ferns the Gen X of plants? Ben Dark on Green Kingdom
    Oct 30 2026

    This week I talk to garden writer Ben Dark about his new book, Green Kingdom. We cover being called "the Bill Bryson of Botany", why ferns are such survivors, Darwin's "abominable mystery", the work behind the humble moth orchid, and why taxonomy deserves better PR.
