Identifying Grasses, Sedges & Rushes

Identifying Grasses, Sedges & Rushes
Two day course taught by Graeme Lyons at Woods Mill, 4th & 5th July. The first day looks at grasses and the second day at sedges and rushes. Attendees should gain a greater understanding of this difficult but ecologically important group of vascular plants. Specimens will be brought in from other habitats. This course often has a waiting list so book early to avoid disappointment.
