Glynwood Presents Program on Spring Ephemerals
The wonders of a spring forest will be revealed in this lecture and 3-hour hike through Glynwood's rich and diverse landscape and neighboring Fahnestock State Park. The program will take place on May 3, from 10am to 4pm. Ulrich Lorimer will introduce participants to native spring ephemerals, the environments that nurture them, and the invasive species that threaten them. He will also talk about little-known woodland shade plants and ferns that are difficult to grow.
To participate fully in this exploration you must be able to hike on forest trails that are moderately steep in places.
Ulrich Lorimer is Curator of Native Plants at Brooklyn Botanic Garden. A cum laude graduate of University of Delaware, he has also worked at the National Arboretum and Wave Hill.
Fee is $65 and includes lunch. Registration and advance payment are required. To register, contact Anita Barber at 265- 3338 or abarber@glynwood.org
