⁣Can you believe it? The Metro Phoenix EcoFlora is celebrating its one-year anniversary! Join us for a review of the past year, member recognition and exciting announcements about what's in store for year two. We are also pleased to announce our guest speaker: Dixie Z. Damrel. Dixie worked with Dr. Donald Pinkava and Dr. Leslie Landrum to compile the Phoenix Flora Database (1997-1999), an online database that encompassed the vascular plants within a 40 mile radius of the capitol building in downtown Phoenix. This Flora has helped provide a baseline for the Metro Phoenix EcoFlora project and can guide our efforts into the future. 𝘠𝘰𝘶 𝘥𝘰𝘯’𝘵 𝘸𝘢𝘯𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘮𝘪𝘴𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴!⁣
