Learn about our many amazing native oak species and how to identify them in the garden. Oak tree identification becomes quick and rewarding when using easy and practical identification tricks such as leaf shape, bark texture, silhouettes, and fruit and nuts found on the ground, especially in the fall when there is a surplus of acorns around. The class will begin in a lecture room and move outdoors, so please dress accordingly for the weather.
This program takes place in person at Mt. Cuba Center on Saturday, October 12, 2024 (Rain Date: Saturday, October 19).
