MNPS Program: Native and Non-native Vines in Maryland’s Natural Areas

Speaker: Speaker: Carole Bergmann, Forest Ecologist/Field Botanist, Maryland National Capital Parks & Planning Commission

This is our second presentation in 2015 to concentrate entirely on vines. We are delighted to have Carole Bergmann share her knowledge on this important topic. Join us to learn about both native vines and non-native invasive vines found growing in our Maryland Natural Areas. The presentation will include a lecture/slide component, but will also feature a table or two of “samples” gathered from nearby natural areas for “hands-on” identification and discussion purposes.
