Dendrology

This week I want to introduce you to some of the common trees around the Four Mile Run watershed. I’ve relied on Cooperative Extension websites for much of this information, and would highly encourage you to explore your local Cooperative Extension office for all of your plant/tree/garden questions. It’s a great (and often critically underused) resource!

As a disclaimer, the latter half of the slides in the following powerpoint come from a previous Natural Resources course. I’ve included them here because it lets you see a more complete picture of the tree diversity in Arlington County. Enjoy!
