Description:
Ken LeRoy, Certified Arborist, Representative, John B. Ward Tree Experts
Join us for a two-day class on the identification of woody landscape plants for urban and suburban landscapes. The class will cover both deciduous trees and conifers. Arborist and horticulturist, Ken LeRoy, will show you how to use a dichotomous key to identify plants and will explain the terminology used in keys to describe plant characteristics. He will also discuss the physical characteristics used to group plants into families. We will go on a tour of the Morris Arboretum to see specimens of the plants we discuss. You may want to purchase the Sibley Guide to Trees, available in the Arboretum bookstore, and a good reference for tree identification. Please dress for the weather. This course carries 5.5 CEUs for ISA certified arborists and 6 CEUs for PA landscape architects.
