    She has a public garden named after her at the Smithsonian: www.gardens.si.edu/horticulture/gardens/Ripley/ripley1.html
  • Smithsonian Institution said:
    You are correct, Eric. The Smithsonian gardeners are pretty incredible.
  • bharatbhushan@yahoo.com said:
    The person on the top right is Mr. P. B. Shekar, former collections specialist at the Bombay Natural History Society and a regular camp member of many expeditions by Dr. Ripley in India. Mr. Shekar would have many a splendid tale to speak of about the Ripley expeditions and someone from the Smithsonian should probably get in touch with him at the BNHS and record the stories.
  • Smithsonian Institution said:
    Thanks for the lead. and your note. We will let you know what we find out! Sincerely, Effie
