Amazing Flora at Ecolodge Itororo

 

Seeds have numerous ways of dispersion. Some are shaped to fly with the wind, some are designed to flow away in the stream of creeks all the way to the sea. Other seeds need to dry out completely so they can sprout. There are seeds that need pollinators to transport pollen to fertilize them. There are seeds that stay dormant until the right environmental conditions for them to germinate occur, and still there are seeds that nourish animal and men. There are seeds that fertilize the soil that will fertilize them one day. Endemic animal and plant species are vulnerable to environmental devastation when strategic ecological processes such as seed dispersal are disturbed by imbalances in the environment. Unnatural changes in light, temperature and moisture disrupt an entire chain of events which the whole natural world depends on. Every seed counts.
