Botany 2026 Swag!
To get your pick of sizes, colors and options, order directly from the store HERE!
We’ve partnered with Bonfire—a company that oversees production, shipping, and customer service—allowing us to save time and resources. This is our second year working with them, and we greatly valued last year’s partnership. An added bonus: multiple color options are available for all items! While a limited number of t-shirts will be available onsite, ordering ahead ensures you get the size and color you want.

This annual meeting of six leading professional botanical societies (the American Bryological and Lichenological Society, the American Fern Society, the American Society of Plant Taxonomists, the International Society of Plant Taxonomy, the Society for Herbarium Curators, and the Botanical Society of America) brings together a diverse mix of researchers, professors, educators, government employees and motivated graduate and undergraduate students, all focused on what’s new in the botanical sciences.
For Botany 2026 we return to one of our highest rated locations, Tucson, Arizona. We anticipate over 1000 participants from around the world to present over 700 scientific contributions including special symposia, papers, posters, and special lectures. A full slate of field trips and scientific and educational workshops will round out the program.
Be a part of the best scientific conference of the summer!
Check back here often for updates, more information will be coming soon!
