What tree is that? This is a familiar refrain that, unfortunately, has kept too many of us from enjoying a good night's sleep, a second helping of pasta, or even a delicious double espresso as we ponder the mystery of the leafy specimen we just encountered while on our daily walk. Well trouble yourself no more. Thanks to RITree you can learn the plant's identity by attending RITree's "Knowing Your Trees" program- giving you plenty of time for these other delights! "Knowing Your Trees" is a series of three workshops on the 100 most common shade trees, conifers and plant ornamentals found in Rhode Island. Participants will learn how to identify these plants from their leaf, bud, fruit and flowering characteristics. The cost for each workshop is $65.00 per member ($85.00 non-members) includes a workshop manual and lunch. Only 30 seat are available per workshop, so please register as soon as possible to avoid missing out.
