The concept of the nurse plant reminds me of the successes of Miyawaki forests. This interview also reminds me of "Finding the Mother Tree" and the connections between all plants in a forest. Too bad the forestry industry hasn't caught on. Incredible point you make about the paltry funding for such a beloved species.

I am very happy that the professor is dong this work. It gives me hope for the survival of the Monarch Butterfly and the Oyamel Firs of Mexico. And the ecosystem of the Forests of the Clouds.

Thanks so much for sharing. I recently attended some webinars about the plight of the mariposa monarca.
