Spring Bog Talk & Walk
Many beautiful native wetland plants can be found growing in Connecticut’s bogs and fens. These include the carnivorous eastern pitcher plant and sundew, cranberry, arrowhead, marsh St. John’s worts, rose pogonia orchids, and grass pink orchids. Join area naturalists, Barbara and Peter Rzasa, for a presentation describing the formation of bogs, plants found in bogs, and how to build a do-it-yourself mini-bog measuring less than four square feet containing several easily grown wetland plants. Then, join them on a walk at the Whittemore Sanctuary to view these native wetland plants!
