Description:
These workshops are a fun, practical, interactive crash course in botanical terminology. You will learn to look for the relevant characters on plants and use keys in plant guides to identify plants to family and Genus level. You will also become extremely familiar with the most common family ‘hooks’ to help you make better sense of plants when in the field.
