Summer Activities: GPS Documentation

Another post from Courtney & Julie:

We pollinated and took GPS locations of Michigan Lilies around the site (on left). We will go back in the fall to collect some seed pods from these plants so they can be spread into new areas.

Turtlehead populations have been counted and GPS coordinates have been recorded so some butterflies that feed on turtleheads can be acquired from the Peggy Notebaert Museum.

GPS locations of blooming species have also been recorded throughout the summer so they can be found and seed collected later in the season. The GPS coordinates will also aid in finding these species in the upcoming years.
