Ten years later she married botanist John Gill Lemmon, and together the two discovered hundreds of new plant species, many of them illustrated by Sara, an accomplished artist. Although she became an acknowledged botanical expert and lecturer, Sara's considerable contributions to scientific knowledge were credited merely as \"J.G. Lemmon \u0026amp; wife.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Forgotten Botanist\u003c\/i\u003e chronicles Sara's remarkable life, in which she and JG found new plant species in Arizona, California, Oregon, and Mexico and traveled throughout the Southwest with such friends as John Muir and Clara Barton.
