Thank you all who have come and volunteered through out the year either with plants at the Nursery or collecting seed.
The goal for restoration plants was 600, and we only hit 400. However we can say that the additional bumper crop of chalk and lancet-leaf Dudleya made up for things: over 200 each! We were hit very hard by the dry winds coupled with days of ‘teen weather – destroying over 50% of the 2 major planting days we had. Thank you again to those that helped out: Nanci, Anne, Sarah, David, Tom, Paul, Greg, Kimberly, Barbara, Francisco and Larry.
Seed collection goal was 3 lbs, which we met handidly: 3.3 lbs of LCWP Nursery “Party” mix: 80% CA buckwheat, remainder about 4% each: CA everlasting, golden bush, deer weed, E. californica, and purple needle grass. Many thanks to those who helped collect: Anne, Sarah, Dale, Marilyn, Matt, Brad, David, Tom, Ranger Barbara, Francisco … and especially Kimberly by incorporating collection into her educational classes (she also totted around family with un-named CA State Park ranger to collect acorns).
