The Botany of Desire - Watch Legally and Safely
The Botany of Desire
Because this documentary examines the effect that these four plants, specifically the apple, the tulip, cannabis, and the potato, has had on human civilization and our effect/the effect that human civilization has had on these four plants all within a two hour timespan, each segment of this documentary does the most amount of justice that the makers of the documentary were able to make it into within that timespan but, it's not perfect. I think it is safe to say that each segment, to do justice to it would likely deserve anywhere from one hour to two hours, to examine them all individually and in detail.
How to Watch The Botany of Desire Legally and Safely
If you want to stream The Botany of Desire through reputable and legal services, there are a few good options depending on where you are. Subscription platforms like HBO Max, Disney+, Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and Apple TV+ sometimes carry The Botany of Desire films or related DC titles—though availability depends on your country.
If you’d rather not commit to a subscription, there are ad‑supported, free (but legal) platforms such as Tubi, Pluto TV, Peacock or Crackle (where available in your region) that occasionally host superhero films.
Lastly, don’t forget about library‑linked streaming options like Kanopy or Hoopla (if your library or university is registered), and official uploads by film distributors on YouTube—these can also give you legal access to classic movies.
