THE MILL RIVER: SUMMER FLORA - JUNE
This week, to celebrate the official beginning of summer, is a virtual walk along the Mill River, featuring native and naturalized flora, many of which would also be good for your garden. The walk is divided into three parts by month; then the plants are grouped by environment, starting with the flora of the upland woods, then favorites from the part-shade and sun of the river-side and swamp, and finally the jewels of the open meadow.
JUNE: UPLAND WOODS
