This week we talk to Jono Miller, who has written a delightful book about the cabbage palm. Join us as we talk about mob stories and cabbage palms, conquistadors and cabbage palms, and the war between the states (no, not that one) to get the cabbage palm as the official tree.

You can pre-order Jono's book from the University Press of Florida.\\xa0
