Hi Everyone! I’m Rebecca Dolan, director of the Friesner Herbarium at Butler University for over 20 years. I have a PhD in Botany from the University of Georgia and am a past president of the Indiana Native Plant and Wildflower Society (INPAWS). I often write for the wonderful INPAWS Journal, but have been wanting a way to get timely information out about plants of seasonal interest that can be seen in and around Indianapolis. That is what inspired this blog. I will add posts from time to time as I seem something that catches my eye.
To learn more about the Friesner Herbarium, see http://www.butler.edu/herbarium/.
We are building a digital collection of historic specimens. Check it out at: http://palni.contentdm.oclc.org/cdm/landingpage/collection/herbarium4.
I lead monthly nature walks around the Butler campus on the 2nd Tuesday of each month. E-mail me (rdolan@butler.edu) to be put on my distribution list for reminders, topics, and to be notified on occassional cancellations. Everyone is welcome to join us.
