Description

With two new giant pandas at the San Diego Zoo, there is a need for a lot of bamboo! The Horticulture team plays a big role in keeping much of the wildlife at the Zoo well-fed, and that includes the giant pandas. In this episode, hosts Rick and Marco speak with Adam Graves, director of horticulture for San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance. How does this team keep up with our giant pandas’ demand for this fast-growing plant? How many kinds of bamboo are there? Tune in to hear more about bamboo and some of the other plants grown at the Zoo, including one of the rarest in the world.
