18th - 20th November residential course
In winter, when there are very few flowers around and most of our native plants have lost their leaves, there is a wonderful opportunity to focus our attention on identifying the conifers - most of which are evergreen and still bear cones.
During this conifer identification course you will spend time in and around Juniper Hall considering the key features of the different families and genera of conifers and how we might begin to separate the different species. Specimens of different cones and foliage will be available to study. You will build confidence in field recognition of the major genera of conifers and practice looking for appropriate characters to confirm the species.
