Missouri Wildflowers Blooming in June

This month we will learn to identify Missouri wildflowers blooming in June. We will discuss the flower color, shape, leaf arrangement and habit of growth. Rachel Mandi, naturalist, will give us tips inside at the Discovery Center before we go outside to the native gardens to see how many we can identify. If you like, bring your phones to practice the basic photography skills of good lighting, the rule of thirds, using a tripod and knowing the dates of recurrent flowering of plants in season.

At the end of the evening, one lucky person will win the “Missouri Wildflowers” book by Edgar Denison. This book is also on sale at the Discovery Center.
