4d👏🏆 Wonderful news. Applauding Takeda's Garden for Medicinal Plant Conservation. Good Kamma! 🙏 PS. Might be worth doing NPR on it too. The next life-saving drug could be waiting within it. A few plant species from the Hollyhocks' Alcea genus are traditionally used for stomach ulcers, pain, diabetes etc. 😁
