First Wildflowers for April 2018

The Botany Group at U of M held an impromptu field trip to ESGR on April 23 to see if anything was showing.  A day for short sleeves or even tank tops!  We found Hepatica americana and Carex pensylvanica but nothing else was up flowering (yet!)

She maintains a teeny organic farm with every vegetable that she can squeeze into its hilltop space. Her real passion is vines, and tropical woody ones (lianas) are the best. Her favorite plant? Depends on which moment you ask her...
