Editor’s Note

In this issue of CC Kids, we explore the power, perfume, and profusion of plants, travelling from your back garden to the very roof of the world. In our feature article and Fun Facts column, Sunita Rao enters the dark realm of an underground denizen - the tuber. Not only do they come in a variety shapes and sizes, but also flavours! Why not try the recipes Sunita suggests? Then Shweta Basnett takes us high into the Himalayan mountains with the story of the beautiful blooms she finds there, and the diversity of life they support. Come with us on this extraordinary tour of India’s botanical bounty! - Matthew Creasey
