Plant Identification

4 Days - $890

 

Dr. Mohlenbrock was excellent!  I feel privileged to have been able to take this training with him.  His knowledge is quite impressive!  All of our time was spent in the field which is the best way to learn.  Dr. Mohlenbrock’s methodology helps one retain the knowledge gleaned."

This is a field class on the identification of plants that commonly occur in a variety of different wetlands in the region where the class is scheduled, with emphasis on plants of the wetland/non-wetland interface. Learn general plant identification principles and diagnostic field characteristics of each species to enable ready distinction between species with very similar appearances. Many of these characteristics are in addition to those noted in field guides.  Although all plants encountered during the class will be covered, major emphasis will be on grasses, sedges, rushes, and the aster family. Class in March will have special emphasis on spring grasses and sedges. Class in September-October will have special emphasis on fall grasses and sedges, as well as members of the aster family. Local-specific plant lists are provided.
