Join this late-winter walk focused on identifying woody plants during the colder months, when many trees and shrubs have shed their leaves. Arlington’s scenic Great Meadows will be our field site. Discover how to identify plants by their branching patterns, bark, buds, galls, and any persistent fruits that remain throughout the season. We’ll also look at winter weeds—hardy non-woody plants that stand up tall even through the colder months. Learn not only plant ID techniques but also fascinating natural history and folklore about the plants we see.
