Wild Flowers in Fall

As a follow up to our spring course, “Wildflowers of New England,” this
class highlights flora in the last stages of the growing season.
What fruits have been produced by spring wildflowers and how are they dispersed? What flowers are blooming in the fall and why? Which pollinators are active? The program includes a walk in the Garden, a power-point presentation to further illustrate the key points, and samples for dissection and close observation. References for fruits
and winter ID provided. Bring Newcomb’s Wild Flower Guide
and a 10x hand lens.
