We printed Agalinis fasciculata!

My #plantsgiving totals:
49 species in 25 different families!

my #plantsgiving from a few years ago. Not as diverse as some, but it included some niche things from the upper Midwest

Going to elevate a positive story: The latest issue of the Vasculum (@socherbcurators) features a wonderful collaboration @UArkansas between art and science-- using the UARK herbarium to convey space and time! herbariumcurators.org/wp-content/u... (pg 10-12)

Herbarium exchange! My turn to host the Arkansas State folks after visiting them last week. Thanks to Travis Marsico and Kari Harris! Lots of botanical synergy coming soon.

new species hiding (misidentified) in plain sight in old collections! UARK collections manager Jennifer Ogle verified that this specimen was actually Matelea hirtelliflora from the far SE corner of Arkansas!
