The Buttercup Family (Ranunculaceae)
Using a powerpoint presentation and a close look at herbarium specimens, this 2-part class will cover all of the native and a number of the introduced members of the buttercup family (Ranunculaceae) that grow in natural habitats in New England. In addition to the “true” buttercups (Ranunculus), buttercup family genera that will be discussed include baneberry (Actaea), anemone (Anemone), columbine (Aquilegia), marsh marigold (Caltha), clematis (Clematis), goldenseal (Hydrastis ), meadow rue (Thalictrum), and globeflower (Trollius), a varied and strikingly beautiful group of wildflowers.
Please note: We do not make video or audio recordings of classes or programs available after the fact, because we believe education is interactive, with instructors and students building a community and culture of learning. Some programs may be recorded strictly for instructor-training purposes. Please visit this page to review this and other FAQs about our policies.
