Fall Lichen Walk

Taught by Dr. Katherine Glew. Have you always wondered about what lichens are and why they are found on your trees, rhododendrons and azaleas? Lichens are harmless to your plants and add aesthetic value to your garden. Enjoy a walk around the Bellevue Botanical Garden while learning about common lichens found in an urban environment and what they can tell us about air quality and the make-up of plants and geology. You will leave with a fresh understanding about lichens and a user-friendly chart that lists lichens found in your neighborhood. This is a perfect autumn activity for those shorter days! $24.50 BBGS Member/$35 Non-member.
