  • Recognise the setting in which culture actually occurs — Read plant name, origin, use and zone together, comparing curated ex-situ conservation with natural rainforest structure.
  • Participate only where the setting clearly allows it — Join science tours or night observations with an official schedule, first confirming meeting point, lighting and photography rules.
  • Separate residents’ lives, ritual and performance — Do not collect seeds, flowers or fruit, cross research boundaries or touch equipment; avoid strong light around insects and nocturnal animals.
