Paul Samikwo, Kenya's singular botanist

Over the years we have been fortunate that Kenya's eminent botanist has found time to visit Malewa Forest. His extraordinary knowledge of indigenous African plants and trees is unique.

It is a rare honour to be able to view the incredible diversity of trees and plants in the company of a botanist and here are some short videos which feature Paul Samikwo in Malewa forest.
