About this audio guide
This guide to the Heidelberg Botanical Garden starts with a puzzle: a garden founded in the fifteen hundreds whose glasshouses hold almost nothing that old. It follows Werner Rauh, the botanist who ran the garden from nineteen sixty to nineteen eighty-two, and a choice he faced in nineteen thirty-seven. Best heard standing among the succulents and bromeliads in the greenhouses.
