I flagged 20 spots at the landfill site last Saturday. 18 are centered on Echinacea plants that flowered last year (blue flags). 2 are random locations (orange flags). Amy and Caroline are going there tomorrow to search for seedlings.
I noted other plants that were flowering on the east hill:
Zizia aurea
Lithospermum canescens
Sisyrinchium (1 pla)
Viola pedatifida
Astragalus sp.
Pediomelum esculentum – just about to start
Geum triflorum – done
Commandra umbellata – mostly done
On the west hill I noted these:
Senecio (1 pla)
Taraxacum officinale
Antennaria neglecta – done
An update: Caroline and I found 12 seedlings at the Landfill on 4 June. We searched around 18 of last year’s flowering plants, and at two randomly chosen locations, using 41-cm radii.
