Introduction to Plant Identification: Recognizing 10 Common Plant Families by Sight
Class Cost: $90, pre-registration required
Financial aid slots available on a first-come, first-served basis
This class series has 3 sessions: one online lecture and two in-person walks.
Developing the ability to recognize plant families by sight is helpful for learning new plants, whether in the garden or out in nature. This course is designed for students who want to develop basic family recognition and plant identification skills. We will focus on 10 flowering plant families commonly found in cultivation and in the wild. The first two classes (virtual) will cover basic terminology for vegetative (roots, leaves, and stems) and reproductive (flowers and fruits) plant parts. The third and fourth classes will be held in the Arboretum, where we practice using the unique combinations of leaf, flower, and fruit characters to recognize and distinguish among common flowering plant families.
Schedule:
Thursday, April 10th, 6-8pm Pacific Time: Online Zoom lecture
Saturday, April 12th, 9am-11am Pacific Time: In-person plant ID walk at the Washington Park Arboretum
Sunday, April 13th, 9am-11am Pacific Time: In-person plant ID walk at the Washington Park Arboretum
