Interesting reading about the Millennium Seed Bank which has just collected its billionth seed. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/6593333.stm
Gosh for a minute there I thought you were talking about one of our seed collections!!! I think Kew and other botanical gardens do a wonderful job saving seeds from plants that are near extinction, or already extinct, in the wild. Just imagine one billion seeds!!!!
Its kinda like noah collecting animals. Can you imagine the time put in that. All those different seeds.wow!
And here I thought it was your own collection, Frank. :-D Are you sure you aren't the curator of this particular museum?
