Kew's Millennium Seed Bank has a dedicated seed morphologist, Wolfgang Stuppy, who studies the structure of seeds and fruit. Here are some of the images taken from under the microscope. Most of these images are taken by Wolfgang (unless stated otherwise) and are © The Trustees of the Royal Botanic Gardens of Kew.

What wonderful images! Intriguing indeed. I especially like the Sophora secuniflora Wolfgang ...after seeing the full size image. May well return to this page and take time to draw that particular one. Sophie
