In this episode, we pay homage to the remarkable legacy of Datuk Anthony Lamb, a British botanist whose influence extended far beyond the world of Hoyas. His pioneering work not only shaped the Hoya community but also left a lasting mark on fruit crops and ornamental plants in Sabah and its neighboring regions. Join us as we celebrate his extraordinary life, profound contributions, and enduring works. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Mr. Lamb's daughter, Serena Lamb, for graciously permitting us to share her reflections on her father.
