When you’re WORLD FAMOUS, you don’t have to be good at geography.

Actually Flora refers specific plant growth of a region so it's not even geography strictly speaking

It's a word but it's not correct in the context used.

I think a case could be made that the physical movement implied by "onto" applies since the next challenge is in a different location.

I do agree that "on to" is more appropriate.

Flora is a term used for all the plants in a specific locale.

The physical geography of Dallas wouldn't tell the story.

You would need to use Botany to determine the Flora present in the given Geographic area.

You would need to use Geography to determine which climate zones would allow for select vegetation.

Botany is the study of the vegetation allowed by the physical processes in place.

West Texas (where you might find cacti) is in the rain shadow of the Rockies. That is physical geography.

It would be like showing a big cactus on Bourbon Street.

The bucknuts fricked up.

They took their L.

So should you.

You would need Climatology for that.

Botany is the scientific study of plants, including
the plant life of a particular region, habitat, or geological period.

Geography does have an impact on the climate of a region, but you'd need to know Climatology to explain why.

This is a clown thread, bro. Relax.
