MNPS Field Trip: Wildflower ID for Beginners (Friday)

Sponsoring Organization: Maryland Native Plant Society, Calvert Nature Society and Calvert County Natural Resources Division

Interested in knowing the names of the wonderful wildflowers you encounter in forest and field? Then take this class where you’ll learn to “key-out” local plants using the popular Newcomb’s Wildflower Guide. Other field guides can be used, but the instruction will focus on the terminology and methodology of Newcomb's. 

For adults, although teens 16 years and older may attend.

Leader:  Karyn Molines

Free for Calvert Nature Society and Maryland Native Plant Society members; $8 for nonmembers

Bring: Please bring a hand lens, lunch, and water. Please consider buying Newcomb’s Wildflower Guide before the program and reading the beginning sections. A limited number are for sale at the Battle Creek Cypress Swamp.

A few copies of the guide and extra lenses will be available to borrow.
