Moss Workshop

If mosses intrigue you when you hike but you wonder exactly what you are seeing, this is your chance to figure it out in a fun environment. On the last Saturday of each month, we'll take a closer look at a moss or two and work together to identify them. We'll introduce you to the vocabulary and work through moss keys together. A walk down your street will never be the same!

    How long do you typically investigate the mosses? An hour or two?

    Thanks Anne and Heidi for joining the workshop. We examined Lindberg's hypnum moss (Hypnum lindbergii), a frequent moss of disturbed streamsides. Here's a drawing from the Bryophyte Flora of North America: http://www.efloras.org/object_page.aspx?object_id=53831&a...
