The Ericaceae of New England: Diversity, Ecology, and Phylogeny
Tuesday, September 22, 2026, 6-7PM
Overview
Explore why flowers have distinct scents, and why plants produce smells in the first place by examining how plants communicate and protect themselves. We’ll also investigate the remarkable ways plants perceive their surroundings—sensing, responding, and moving in ways that are largely invisible to humans. This interactive presentation will include demonstrations of plant behavior.
