Скачать или смотреть Virtual Lunch and Learn: Spring Ephemerals with Owen Carson

Equinox Environmental’s Owen Carson joined SAHC to present a Lunch & Learn about spring ephemeral wildflowers in Southern Appalachia.

Appalachian Spring truly is a sight to behold! As winter relents, life bursts forth from the thawed ground, producing a dazzling display of colors, shapes, textures, and tastes. This world-famous biodiversity (over 6,000 plant species!) is the focus of many a spring pilgrimage to these mountains.

In keeping with tradition, Owen Carson, Botanist & Ecologist at Equinox Environmental, takes us on a virtual plant pilgrimage with a focus on ephemeral and other spring wildflowers commonly seen in Appalachian forests. Explore the unique biology and ecology of spring ephemerals, learn about their preferred habitats, and see how they are distributed across the landscape. You'll feel more confident on how to recognize and identify native woodland wildflowers.
