Trees! – Identification by Carrie Blair – Canceled due to Storm Damage
Canceled due to storm damage!
Carrie Blair will tell you how to identify trees any time of the year, using phenology (the study of periodic plant life events: leafing, flowering, fruiting), location, shape, bark, branch, pattern, buds, leaf scars, seeds
and more.
She will use examples at Asheville Botanical Garden. Bring a hand lens and binoculars if you can, and any mystery leaves or photographs of trees to learn from.
Carrie is a Master Gardener and a tree expert. She taught Winter Tree ID with Josh Kelly, MountainTrue, Public Lands Biologist at Cradle of Forestry and teaches a 12-week Winter Tree ID for the Transylvania Master Gardeners every winter.
–Bring a plant to share! Bring one, and get to pick one to take home. Don’t worry if you don’t have one to bring, there probably will be extras to go around.–
