NAME THAT WEED!!!

This week I have a HUGE project to turn in. It seems that all semester I have been searching for 25 different weeds to press and mount for my weeds class. This has been a lot of fun…but also very challenging! Our assignment was to find 25 different weed species that have a root system, a flower and fit onto a certain size paper! I have spent many hours out collecting weeds and pressing them. This week I have been mounting them and I am almost ready to turn this project in!

This photo is of a weed I found while on our soil judging trip to Rhode Island. I am still researching to figure out what kind of a weed it is!

Better get back to mounting weeds!

Until next time….
