Knowing Native Plants: Spring Ephemerals

Spring wildflowers such as Dutchman’s breeches, bloodroot, bluebell, spring beauty, twinleaf, and

several species of trillium color the forest floor for a fleeting few weeks each spring. Join Naturalist Mary

Anne Borge to learn why these wildflowers are called spring ephemerals, how their life cycles work, and

how their seeds are dispersed. Indoor presentation/discussion followed by an outdoor tour.

This program takes place on Saturday, April 23, 2016 from 1:00 – 4:00 p.m. The program fee for Preserve
