PLACE CURSOR OVER THE TEXT TO STOP THE SCROLLER



What's that little yellow flower?
How do you begin to identify native plants?

This class will help you to know more than most New Mexicans do about our beautiful native flora. The first class is a presentation, with many photos, of basic plant and flower anatomy, and characteristics of the ten easiest plant families to recognize - no hand lens required! The next day, we'll go for a field trip to look at and identify plants.
