Hi folks, a lovely Friday evening and here I am fretting about plants! 3 questions for the FLNPS think tank: 1. can anyone ID this dead, dry flowerhead with...
Kevin, Image #1 is of Wild Leek, Allium tricoccum. It is a good time to collect some of this seed and sow it where ever you want leeks to grow. #2 is of...
thanks Susanne! 1. wild leek - cool! 2. that trillium pic is not mine, just one I got off google when I was trying to find what I should be looking for in the...
Hi Susanne! Could you tell me where I could a copy of this poster? I tell so many friends about the "nasty" earthworms, but of course it is hard for them to...
Thanks for the reply. Red Trillium have red fruit. Makes sense, doesn't it? I think the fruiting takes place earlier in the year, like in July perhaps. The...
Sally, I will look at the poster and see if it has information about where it is from. It was about Minnesota, but the same is true here. I was thinking that...
... Kevin, Many Trillium do not fruit, even if they did bloom. But the main reason you aren't finding seeds is that it is way too late. Looking at the ...
Perhaps this is the link where you found the poster http://www.dnr.state.mn.us/invasives/terrestrialanimals/earthworms/index.html I am sad to say that most of...
Sally, Yes, this is the same poster (in the PDF) but when I printed it, it is too small to read. I don't know how to make it larger. I assume that is...
Hi all, does anyone have any suggestions for native lawns? Long story short, I had to have major excavation done around my 'new' house/yard, and I am looking...
Kevin, I'll try to ask around at the meeting tonight, if you don't make it. I suspect that Bromus species would grow - they are cool season and very easy....
Thanks Rosemarie! I forgot about the talk tonight. It looks like Jim Engel's Restoration talk has been replaced by Bryan Danforth's bees? cheers, kcz ... ...
Kevin, I forwarded this to Krissy, but I happen to know she is not in her office today, so she won't see it until tomorrow. Rosemarie is going to talk with...
Hi everybody, I would very much like to join you for the 'annual seed collecting walk' this Saturday. I will be driving in from an hour away, so can someone...
Kevin, I will try. I'm on a tight schedule Sat., because I have to attend a class for election inspectors at 9:00 AM in the Lansing Town Hall, and then go to...
Kevin, This may be a wild goose chase, but I think I remember seeing lots of Quercus bicolor acorns and leaves under large trees at the upper entrance to the...
Kevin, Krissy had no knowledge of no-mow type grasses, but the first ones she said was little Bluestem or Bromus. Either seeds itself well, but you would...
hi All, there will be a garlic mustard pull at the Lindsay Parsons biodiversity preserve on Saturday, October 28, from 12:30 to 3:30. There will be at least 12...
Hey, much more detail on grasses. Dan is a FLNPS member, but not a list-serve member, so his first effort to respond didn't make it through. Here it is,...
Kevin, You were correct. That tall tree we saw is Abies balsamea, Balsam Fir. I notice that the lower surface of the leaves (needles) is marked by 2...
I'm not sure how much of the focus will be on natives (I would guess not much!), but perhaps this will be of interest to some. Grasses for Conservation,...
Hi all, A little update on the walk that Nat and I are leading on Nov. 18th. This is a lichen walk and we originally planned to go to Bear Swamp Sempronius....
HI all, I'm hoping someone can help with this. The top 50 feet of my woods has cultivated Rhododendrons (evergreen & deciduous)and I don't know if this...
