Chicago—Ask Harry H. S. Fong, PhD, how the University of Illinois at Chicago's (UIC) College of Pharmacy decided which species to include in its new medicinal plant garden, and he responds without a second thought. "Ouija board," says the professor of pharmacognosy, grinning. Tucked into an inconspicuous corner of the urban campus, UIC's recently dedicated garden is a microcosm of its massive Pharmacognosy Field Station, located about 25 miles west of the campus in suburban Downer's Grove, Ill.

The leaves of Catharanthus, or Madagascar periwinkle, are used to produce vincristine and vinblastine. (Photo credit: Grant Therkildsen, UIC Photographic Services)
