Members of the mustard family (Brassicaceae), both native and introduced, are among the earliest flowers to bloom in the spring. Using images and herbarium specimens, this Native Plant Trust presentation by Ted Elliman at Garden in the Woods on April 4 from 1 – 4 will discuss the identification features and habitats of a number of the species in this confusing and often overlooked group of wildflowers, including species of Arabidopsis, Boechera, Brassica, Cardamine, Draba, Lepidium, and several other mustard genera. $45 for NPT members, $54 for nonmembers.
