PALOOLA: Botanical

Paula de la Cruz

Botany Is in (Almost) All Things My name is Paula de la Cruz, or PALOOLA—to some of my friends. I have written about gardens, botanical art, travel and culture for many US publications. PALOOLA is my monthly podcast that looks into new ideas in art, design, technology and health, all inspired by nature and botany. In conversations with guests, I explore how botany is in our daily lives in aspects that aren’t immediately apparent. Join us!
