We appreciate your posts and the following ones are randomly selected because of their botanical qualities. They are manually curated on behalf of the  [Amazing Nature Community](https://peakd.com/c/hive-127788/created).

First a brief explanation about Botany:


**Botany** is a broad term covering scientific study of plants. It could be from a small living organism to a tree. Included would be flora, fungi, lichens, trees and flowering plants. 

We are also interested in plants for their psychological (good for the mind & soul) benefits.

Through botany, medicinal properties are discovered from nature.  Food, medicines, parks, forests, pollution  and much more have been improved with botanical knowledge.  Botanists search for alternatives from the harmful chemicals used on crops and the deforestation that has damaged the health of our planet.

Herbalism, with ancient people identifying edible, medicinal or poisonous plants, is the original of Botany. Our ancestors and Native peoples were botanists in their own right. They knew of the healing properties to be found in plants but much of that knowledge had been lost to future generations.

## Now I would like to bring your attention to the curated posts and ask you to show some love to the amazing authors:

* May is tulip month and  @animal-shelter has an impressive array of tulips in the garden. 
Gardening is one of her hobbies and she thinks it may be a means of psychotherapy. ‘Nature is a great artist’ and the joint effort has accumulated in these beautiful flowers.

* @engrsayful relates how media information has raised the mushroom from a lowly status of how it was destroyed in his childhood to now being planted as a crop in Bangladesh. In early times it was a rumour this kind of mushroom was built by frogs for a shelter in the rainy weather.
