After Semenggoh we travelled the short distance to the Forest Department Herbarium where we had a fascinating time speaking to staff, such as researcher Noorhana here with Amalia, and having a close look at the herbarium sheets of the plants we have met, and visiting the living collection.

Everyone found it really interesting and Amalia has fallen in love not once but twice. She has found her future career – working in a herbarium, and found her very special species – Dimorphorchis lowii (bellow)

Two very good choices. More on Dimirphorchis lowii when we get home.
