Post date: Jan 19, 2016 9:00:17 PM

Please join us on Tuesday February 9th in Birge Hall on the UW-Madison campus for a workshop on the bedstraws (Galium: Rubiaceae) of Wisconsin by John Zaborsky, Botany graduate student. Bedstraws, known for their whorled leaves and prickly stems, are a common component of forests and wetlands throughout the state and can be difficult to tell apart. This workshop will cover all species known to occur in Wisconsin and allow participants to work with specimens of the most common species. You are encouraged to bring your own specimens that you may be puzzling over!
