McAllen workshop to introduce plant ID

Whether someone is interested in a career in botany or they just want to be a better home horticulturist, knowing how to properly ID plants can be a useful skill, and a McAllen area workshop can help point the way.

The learners in the Common Plants and Families ID workshop will be walked through the process of identifying some of the more common plants they may encounter. It will be botany focused, with an emphasis placed on native species found in the area.

The session will introduce its registrants to simple ways to determine what species a plant is and what family it fits into. The learning will be hands-on, and the group will work both indoors and outside at the venue. A guided tour of Quinta Mazatlan’s plants is on the agenda so everyone can get some in the field experience, and tickets for the two-hour-long workshop are $5 each.

A class focused on horticulture may be able to make good use of learning tools such as Copies of herbarium sheets. These give the learner an opportunity to study the various parts of a plant’s structure without damaging the original sheet, and can be prepared by Stationery printers.

This easy introduction to properly identifying the plants of the McAllen area is scheduled for October 14. It will be on offer at 600 Sunset Drive.
